## Abstract As a rat navigates through a familiar environment, its position in space is encoded by firing rates of place cells and grid cells. Oscillatory interference models propose that this positional firing rate code is derived from a phase code, which stores the rat's position as a pattern of
## Abstract We review the ideas and data behind the hypothesis that hippocampal pyramidal cells encode information by their phase of firing relative to the theta rhythm of the EEG. Particular focus is given to the further hypothesis that variations in firing rate can encode information independentl
The operations of encoding and decoding in communication agree with filtering operations of convolution and deconvolution for Gaussian signal processing. In an analogy with power transmission in thermodynamics, an autoregressive model of information transmission is proposed for representing a contin
