Repertoires of spike avalanches are modulated by behavior and novelty

Repertoires of spike avalanches are modulated by behavior and novelty

Neuronal avalanches measured as consecutive bouts of thresholded field potentials represent a statistical signature that the brain operates near a critical point. In theory, criticality optimizes stimulus sensitivity, information transmission, computational capability and mnemonic repertoires size....
