Unsupervised identification of the internal states that shape natural behavior

AJ Calhoun, JW Pillow, M Murthy - Nature neuroscience, 2019 - nature.com
Internal states shape stimulus responses and decision-making, but we lack methods to
identify them. To address this gap, we developed an unsupervised method to identify internal …
