Cortical neurons are the cells of the brain's cerebral cortex. Chemical synapses take the form of a small gap.

Method and system for automatic decoding of motor cortical activity

A Switching Kalman Filter Model for the real-time inference of hand kinematics from a population of motor cortical neurons. Firing rates are modeled as a Gaussian mixture where the mean of each Gaussian component is a linear function of hand kinematics. A “hidden state” models the probability of each mixture component and evolves over time in a Markov chain. Gaussian mixture models and Expectation Maximization (EM) techniques are extended for automatic spike sorting. Good initialization of EM is achieved via spectral clustering. To account for noise, the mixture model is extended to include a uniform outlier process. A greedy optimization algorithm that selects models with different numbers of neurons according to their decoding accuracy is used to automatically determine the number of neurons recorded per electrode. Closed loop neural control of external events are demonstrated using neural control of a computer curser.
