Abstract: Estimating the behavior of a network of neurons requires accurate models of the individual neurons along with accurate characterizations of the connections among them. Whereas for a single cell, measurements of the intracellular voltage are technically feasible and sufficient to characterize a useful model of its behavior, making sufficient numbers of simultaneous intracellular measurements to characterize even small networks is infeasible. This paper builds on prior work on single neurons to explore whether knowledge of the time of spiking of neurons in a network, once the nodes (neurons) have been characterized biophysically, can provide enough information to usefully constrain the functional architecture of the network: the existence of synaptic links among neurons and their strength. Using standardized voltage and synaptic gating variable waveforms associated with a spike, we demonstrate that the functional architecture of a small network of model neurons can be established.

TL;DR: Inferences about the latent dynamical mechanisms that generated the observed data can be drawn, unlike in conventional statistics, and this enables estimation of parameters of such models in a principled way, comes with confidence regions that quantify uncertainty in estimates.

TL;DR: A general framework for the tasks involved in the "inverse" problem of determining properties of a model built to represent measured output from physical, biological, or other processes when the measurements are noisy, the model has errors, and the state of the model is unknown when measurements begin is described.

TL;DR: In this article, the idea of precision annealing (PA) was extended to Monte Carlo calculations of conditional expected values using Metropolis-Hastings methods, which slowly increases the precision term of the model as it enters the Laplace method.
