Scaling of sensory information in large neural populations shows signatures of information-limiting correlations
Information regarding a sensory stimulus is distributed in activity of neuronal populations. Here the authors show stimulus information scales sub-linearly with the number of neurons in mouse visual cortex due to correlated noise and may saturate in far fewer numbers of neurons than the total in V1.
