Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| use two convolutional cell types instead of one | linear efficient coding model · natural movie encoding | reconstruction error at fixed RMS firing rate: 34% reduction | Helped |
| use two cell types instead of one at fixed 0.5% reconstruction error | linear efficient coding model · natural movie encoding | total RMS firing rate: 33% more efficient | Helped |
| use four ON/OFF cell types (two pairs) instead of two types | nonlinear convolutional autoencoder · natural movie reconstruction | optimization loss: approximately 2 times better | Helped |
| use L2 firing rate penalty (p=2) instead of p<2 | efficient coding theory · natural movie encoding | benefit of multiple cell types: no advantage at p = 2 | Hurt |
