Modeling conditional distributions of neural and behavioral data with masked variational autoencoders

Pavan P Ramdya, Victor Lobato Rios, Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza

Extracting the relationship between high-dimensional neural recordings and complex behavior is a ubiquitous problem in neuroscience. Encoding and decoding models target the conditional distribution of neural activity given behavior and vice versa, while di ...

LiftPose3D, a deep learning-based approach for transforming two-dimensional to three-dimensional poses in laboratory animals

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Adám Gosztolai, Victor Lobato Rios, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza, Marco Pietro Abrate

LiftPose3D infers three-dimensional poses from two-dimensional data or from limited three-dimensional data. The approach is illustrated for videos of behaving Drosophila, mice, rats and macaques. ...

The endosomal sorting adaptor HD-PTP is required for ephrin-B: EphB signalling in cellular collapse and spinal motor axon guidance

Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza

The signalling output of many transmembrane receptors that mediate cell-cell communication is restricted by the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT), but the impact of this machinery on Eph tyrosine kinase receptor function is unknown. ...

DeepFly3D, a deep learning-based approach for 3D limb and appendage tracking in tethered, adult Drosophila

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza, João Henrique Campagnolo

Studying how neural circuits orchestrate limbed behaviors requires the precise measurement of the positions of each appendage in 3-dimensional (3D) space. Deep neural networks can estimate 2-dimensional (2D) pose in freely behaving and tethered animals. Ho ...
