520 _ _ |a Despite the large number of active neurons in the cortex, the activity of neural populations for different brain regions is expected to live on a low-dimensional manifold [1]. Among the most common tools to estimate the mapping to this manifold, along with its dimension, are variants of principal component analysis. Although their success is undisputed, these methods still have the disadvantage of assuming that the data is well described by a Gaussian distribution; any additional features such as skewness or bimodality are neglected. Their performance when used as a generative model is therefore often poor.To fully learn the statistics of neural activity and to generate artificial samples, we use Normalizing Flows (NFs) [2, 3]. These neural networks learn a dimension-preserving estimator of the probability distribution of the data (left part of Fig. 1). They differ from generative adversarial networks (GANs) and variational autoencoders (VAEs) by their simplicity – only one bijective mapping is learned – and by their ability to compute the likelihood exactly due to tractable Jacobians at each building block.We adapt the training objective of NFs to discriminate between relevant (in manifold) and noise dimensions (out of manifold). To do this, we break the original symmetry of the latent space by enforcing maximal variance of the data to be encoded by as few dimensions as possible (right part of Fig. 1) - the same idea underlying PCA, a linear model, adapted here for nonlinear mappings. This allows us to estimate the dimensionality of the neural manifold and even to describe the underlying manifold without discarding any information, a unique feature of NFs.We prove the validity of our adaptation on artificial datasets of varying complexity generated by a hidden manifold model where the underlying dimensionality is known. We illustrate the power of our approach by reconstructing data using only a few latent NF dimensions. In this setting, we show the advantage of such a nonlinear approach over linear methods.Following this approach, we identify manifolds in EEG recordings from a dataset featuring high gamma activity. As described in [4], these recordings are obtained from 128 electrodes during four movement tasks. When plotted along the first principal components obtained by PCA, these data show for some PCs a heavy-tailed distribution. While linear models such as PCA are limited to Gaussian statistics and hence suboptimal in such a case, the nonlinearity of NFs enable to learn higher-order correlations. Moreover, by flattening out the curvature in latent space, we can better associate features with latent dimensions. Especially, we have now a reduced set of latent dimensions that explain most of the data variance.References1. Gallego J, Perich M, Miller L, et al.
