Summary: Liam Paninski describes his efforts to process calcium imaging and other neural data, an effort that he hopes will help drive a new era of data sharing.
To analyze neural activity, researchers extract information from raw imaging data, in this case voltage (top). They separate the movie into several components, including contributions from single neurons (color) and uncorrelated noise (bottom). Buchanan, Kinsella, Zhou et al, 2018.
