  text: Most natural and engineered information-processing systems transmit information
    via signals that vary in time. Computing the information transmission rate or
    the information encoded in the temporal characteristics of these signals requires
    the mutual information between the input and output signals as a function of time,
    i.e., between the input and output trajectories. Yet, this is notoriously difficult
    because of the high-dimensional nature of the trajectory space, and all existing
    techniques require approximations. We present an exact Monte Carlo technique called
    path weight sampling (PWS) that, for the first time, makes it possible to compute
    the mutual information between input and output trajectories for any stochastic
    system that is described by a master equation. The principal idea is to use the
    master equation to evaluate the exact conditional probability of an individual
    output trajectory for a given input trajectory and average this via Monte Carlo
    sampling in trajectory space to obtain the mutual information. We present three
    variants of PWS, which all generate the trajectories using the standard stochastic
    simulation algorithm. While direct PWS is a brute-force method, Rosenbluth-Rosenbluth
    PWS exploits the analogy between signal trajectory sampling and polymer sampling,
    and thermodynamic integration PWS is based on a reversible work calculation in
    trajectory space. PWS also makes it possible to compute the mutual information
    between input and output trajectories for systems with hidden internal states
    as well as systems with feedback from output to input. Applying PWS to the bacterial
    chemotaxis system, consisting of 182 coupled chemical reactions, demonstrates
    not only that the scheme is highly efficient but also that the number of receptor
    clusters is much smaller than hitherto believed, while their size is much larger.

  text: Although much is known about how single neurons in the hippocampus represent
    an animal's position, how circuit interactions contribute to spatial coding is
    less well understood. Using a novel statistical estimator and theoretical modeling,
    both developed in the framework of maximum entropy models, we reveal highly structured
    CA1 cell-cell interactions in male rats during open field exploration. The statistics
    of these interactions depend on whether the animal is in a familiar or novel environment.
    In both conditions the circuit interactions optimize the encoding of spatial information,
    but for regimes that differ in the informativeness of their spatial inputs. This
    structure facilitates linear decodability, making the information easy to read
    out by downstream circuits. Overall, our findings suggest that the efficient coding
    hypothesis is not only applicable to individual neuron properties in the sensory
    periphery, but also to neural interactions in the central brain.

  text: Cooperative disease defense emerges as group-level collective behavior, yet
    how group members make the underlying individual decisions is poorly understood.
    Using garden ants and fungal pathogens as an experimental model, we derive the
    rules governing individual ant grooming choices and show how they produce colony-level
    hygiene. Time-resolved behavioral analysis, pathogen quantification, and probabilistic
    modeling reveal that ants increase grooming and preferentially target highly-infectious
    individuals when perceiving high pathogen load, but transiently suppress grooming
    after having been groomed by nestmates. Ants thus react to both, the infectivity
    of others and the social feedback they receive on their own contagiousness. While
    inferred solely from momentary ant decisions, these behavioral rules quantitatively
    predict hour-long experimental dynamics, and synergistically combine into efficient
    colony-wide pathogen removal. Our analyses show that noisy individual decisions
    based on only local, incomplete, yet dynamically-updated information on pathogen
    threat and social feedback can lead to potent collective disease defense.

  text: Neurons in the brain are wired into adaptive networks that exhibit collective
    dynamics as diverse as scale-specific oscillations and scale-free neuronal avalanches.
    Although existing models account for oscillations and avalanches separately, they
    typically do not explain both phenomena, are too complex to analyze analytically
    or intractable to infer from data rigorously. Here we propose a feedback-driven
    Ising-like class of neural networks that captures avalanches and oscillations
    simultaneously and quantitatively. In the simplest yet fully microscopic model
    version, we can analytically compute the phase diagram and make direct contact
    with human brain resting-state activity recordings via tractable inference of
    the model’s two essential parameters. The inferred model quantitatively captures
    the dynamics over a broad range of scales, from single sensor oscillations to
    collective behaviors of extreme events and neuronal avalanches. Importantly, the
    inferred parameters indicate that the co-existence of scale-specific (oscillations)
    and scale-free (avalanches) dynamics occurs close to a non-equilibrium critical
    point at the onset of self-sustained oscillations.

  text: Predicting function from sequence is a central problem of biology. Currently,
    this is possible only locally in a narrow mutational neighborhood around a wildtype
    sequence rather than globally from any sequence. Using random mutant libraries,
    we developed a biophysical model that accounts for multiple features of σ70 binding
    bacterial promoters to predict constitutive gene expression levels from any sequence.
    We experimentally and theoretically estimated that 10–20% of random sequences
    lead to expression and ~80% of non-expressing sequences are one mutation away
    from a functional promoter. The potential for generating expression from random
    sequences is so pervasive that selection acts against σ70-RNA polymerase binding
    sites even within inter-genic, promoter-containing regions. This pervasiveness
    of σ70-binding sites implies that emergence of promoters is not the limiting step
    in gene regulatory evolution. Ultimately, the inclusion of novel features of promoter
    function into a mechanistic model enabled not only more accurate predictions of
    gene expression levels, but also identified that promoters evolve more rapidly
    than previously thought.

  text: 'Selection accumulates information in the genome—it guides stochastically
    evolving populations toward states (genotype frequencies) that would be unlikely
    under neutrality. This can be quantified as the Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence
    between the actual distribution of genotype frequencies and the corresponding
    neutral distribution. First, we show that this population-level information sets
    an upper bound on the information at the level of genotype and phenotype, limiting
    how precisely they can be specified by selection. Next, we study how the accumulation
    and maintenance of information is limited by the cost of selection, measured as
    the genetic load or the relative fitness variance, both of which we connect to
    the control-theoretic KL cost of control. The information accumulation rate is
    upper bounded by the population size times the cost of selection. This bound is
    very general, and applies across models (Wright–Fisher, Moran, diffusion) and
    to arbitrary forms of selection, mutation, and recombination. Finally, the cost
    of maintaining information depends on how it is encoded: Specifying a single allele
    out of two is expensive, but one bit encoded among many weakly specified loci
    (as in a polygenic trait) is cheap.'

  text: Models of transcriptional regulation that assume equilibrium binding of transcription
    factors have been less successful at predicting gene expression from sequence
    in eukaryotes than in bacteria. This could be due to the non-equilibrium nature
    of eukaryotic regulation. Unfortunately, the space of possible non-equilibrium
    mechanisms is vast and predominantly uninteresting. The key question is therefore
    how this space can be navigated efficiently, to focus on mechanisms and models
    that are biologically relevant. In this review, we advocate for the normative
    role of theory—theory that prescribes rather than just describes—in providing
    such a focus. Theory should expand its remit beyond inferring mechanistic models
    from data, towards identifying non-equilibrium gene regulatory schemes that may
    have been evolutionarily selected, despite their energy consumption, because they
    are precise, reliable, fast, or otherwise outperform regulation at equilibrium.
    We illustrate our reasoning by toy examples for which we provide simulation code.

  text: Activity of sensory neurons is driven not only by external stimuli but also
    by feedback signals from higher brain areas. Attention is one particularly important
    internal signal whose presumed role is to modulate sensory representations such
    that they only encode information currently relevant to the organism at minimal
    cost. This hypothesis has, however, not yet been expressed in a normative computational
    framework. Here, by building on normative principles of probabilistic inference
    and efficient coding, we developed a model of dynamic population coding in the
    visual cortex. By continuously adapting the sensory code to changing demands of
    the perceptual observer, an attention-like modulation emerges. This modulation
    can dramatically reduce the amount of neural activity without deteriorating the
    accuracy of task-specific inferences. Our results suggest that a range of seemingly
    disparate cortical phenomena such as intrinsic gain modulation, attention-related
    tuning modulation, and response variability could be manifestations of the same
    underlying principles, which combine efficient sensory coding with optimal probabilistic
    inference in dynamic environments.

  text: Brain dynamics display collective phenomena as diverse as neuronal oscillations
    and avalanches. Oscillations are rhythmic, with fluctuations occurring at a characteristic
    scale, whereas avalanches are scale-free cascades of neural activity. Here we
    show that such antithetic features can coexist in a very generic class of adaptive
    neural networks. In the most simple yet fully microscopic model from this class
    we make direct contact with human brain resting-state activity recordings via
    tractable inference of the model's two essential parameters. The inferred model
    quantitatively captures the dynamics over a broad range of scales, from single
    sensor fluctuations, collective behaviors of nearly-synchronous extreme events
    on multiple sensors, to neuronal avalanches unfolding over multiple sensors across
    multiple time-bins. Importantly, the inferred parameters correlate with model-independent
    signatures of "closeness to criticality", suggesting that the coexistence of scale-specific
    (neural oscillations) and scale-free (neuronal avalanches) dynamics in brain activity
    occurs close to a non-equilibrium critical point at the onset of self-sustained
    oscillations.

  text: Phenomenological relations such as Ohm’s or Fourier’s law have a venerable
    history in physics but are still scarce in biology. This situation restrains predictive
    theory. Here, we build on bacterial “growth laws,” which capture physiological
    feedback between translation and cell growth, to construct a minimal biophysical
    model for the combined action of ribosome-targeting antibiotics. Our model predicts
    drug interactions like antagonism or synergy solely from responses to individual
    drugs. We provide analytical results for limiting cases, which agree well with
    numerical results. We systematically refine the model by including direct physical
    interactions of different antibiotics on the ribosome. In a limiting case, our
    model provides a mechanistic underpinning for recent predictions of higher-order
    interactions that were derived using entropy maximization. We further refine the
    model to include the effects of antibiotics that mimic starvation and the presence
    of resistance genes. We describe the impact of a starvation-mimicking antibiotic
    on drug interactions analytically and verify it experimentally. Our extended model
    suggests a change in the type of drug interaction that depends on the strength
    of resistance, which challenges established rescaling paradigms. We experimentally
    show that the presence of unregulated resistance genes can lead to altered drug
    interaction, which agrees with the prediction of the model. While minimal, the
    model is readily adaptable and opens the door to predicting interactions of second
    and higher-order in a broad range of biological systems.

  text: Normative theories and statistical inference provide complementary approaches
    for the study of biological systems. A normative theory postulates that organisms
    have adapted to efficiently solve essential tasks, and proceeds to mathematically
    work out testable consequences of such optimality; parameters that maximize the
    hypothesized organismal function can be derived ab initio, without reference to
    experimental data. In contrast, statistical inference focuses on efficient utilization
    of data to learn model parameters, without reference to any a priori notion of
    biological function, utility, or fitness. Traditionally, these two approaches
    were developed independently and applied separately. Here we unify them in a coherent
    Bayesian framework that embeds a normative theory into a family of maximum-entropy
    “optimization priors.” This family defines a smooth interpolation between a data-rich
    inference regime (characteristic of “bottom-up” statistical models), and a data-limited
    ab inito prediction regime (characteristic of “top-down” normative theory). We
    demonstrate the applicability of our framework using data from the visual cortex,
    and argue that the flexibility it affords is essential to address a number of
    fundamental challenges relating to inference and prediction in complex, high-dimensional
    biological problems.

  text: 'Half a century after Lewis Wolpert''s seminal conceptual advance on how cellular
    fates distribute in space, we provide a brief historical perspective on how the
    concept of positional information emerged and influenced the field of developmental
    biology and beyond. We focus on a modern interpretation of this concept in terms
    of information theory, largely centered on its application to cell specification
    in the early Drosophila embryo. We argue that a true physical variable (position)
    is encoded in local concentrations of patterning molecules, that this mapping
    is stochastic, and that the processes by which positions and corresponding cell
    fates are determined based on these concentrations need to take such stochasticity
    into account. With this approach, we shift the focus from biological mechanisms,
    molecules, genes and pathways to quantitative systems-level questions: where does
    positional information reside, how it is transformed and accessed during development,
    and what fundamental limits it is subject to?'

  text: A central goal in systems neuroscience is to understand the functions performed
    by neural circuits. Previous top-down models addressed this question by comparing
    the behaviour of an ideal model circuit, optimised to perform a given function,
    with neural recordings. However, this requires guessing in advance what function
    is being performed, which may not be possible for many neural systems. To address
    this, we propose an inverse reinforcement learning (RL) framework for inferring
    the function performed by a neural network from data. We assume that the responses
    of each neuron in a network are optimised so as to drive the network towards ‘rewarded’
    states, that are desirable for performing a given function. We then show how one
    can use inverse RL to infer the reward function optimised by the network from
    observing its responses. This inferred reward function can be used to predict
    how the neural network should adapt its dynamics to perform the same function
    when the external environment or network structure changes. This could lead to
    theoretical predictions about how neural network dynamics adapt to deal with cell
    death and/or varying sensory stimulus statistics.

  text: Although much is known about how single neurons in the hippocampus represent
    an animal’s position, how cell-cell interactions contribute to spatial coding
    remains poorly understood. Using a novel statistical estimator and theoretical
    modeling, both developed in the framework of maximum entropy models, we reveal
    highly structured cell-to-cell interactions whose statistics depend on familiar
    vs. novel environment. In both conditions the circuit interactions optimize the
    encoding of spatial information, but for regimes that differ in the signal-to-noise
    ratio of their spatial inputs. Moreover, the topology of the interactions facilitates
    linear decodability, making the information easy to read out by downstream circuits.
    These findings suggest that the efficient coding hypothesis is not applicable
    only to individual neuron properties in the sensory periphery, but also to neural
    interactions in the central brain.

  text: 'We consider a totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) consisting
    of particles on a lattice that require binding by a "token" to move. Using a combination
    of theory and simulations, we address the following questions: (i) How token binding
    kinetics affects the current-density relation; (ii) How the current-density relation
    depends on the scarcity of tokens; (iii) How tokens propagate the effects of the
    locally-imposed disorder (such a slow site) over the entire lattice; (iv) How
    a shared pool of tokens couples concurrent TASEPs running on multiple lattices;
    (v) How our results translate to TASEPs with open boundaries that exchange particles
    with the reservoir. Since real particle motion (including in systems that inspired
    the standard TASEP model, e.g., protein synthesis or movement of molecular motors)
    is often catalyzed, regulated, actuated, or otherwise mediated, the token-driven
    TASEP dynamics analyzed in this paper should allow for a better understanding
    of real systems and enable a closer match between TASEP theory and experimental
    observations.'

  text: 'Antibiotics that interfere with translation, when combined, interact in diverse
    and difficult-to-predict ways. Here, we explain these interactions by “translation
    bottlenecks”: points in the translation cycle where antibiotics block ribosomal
    progression. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms of drug interactions between
    translation inhibitors, we generate translation bottlenecks genetically using
    inducible control of translation factors that regulate well-defined translation
    cycle steps. These perturbations accurately mimic antibiotic action and drug interactions,
    supporting that the interplay of different translation bottlenecks causes these
    interactions. We further show that growth laws, combined with drug uptake and
    binding kinetics, enable the direct prediction of a large fraction of observed
    interactions, yet fail to predict suppression. However, varying two translation
    bottlenecks simultaneously supports that dense traffic of ribosomes and competition
    for translation factors account for the previously unexplained suppression. These
    results highlight the importance of “continuous epistasis” in bacterial physiology.'

  text: The brain represents and reasons probabilistically about complex stimuli and
    motor actions using a noisy, spike-based neural code. A key building block for
    such neural computations, as well as the basis for supervised and unsupervised
    learning, is the ability to estimate the surprise or likelihood of incoming high-dimensional
    neural activity patterns. Despite progress in statistical modeling of neural responses
    and deep learning, current approaches either do not scale to large neural populations
    or cannot be implemented using biologically realistic mechanisms. Inspired by
    the sparse and random connectivity of real neuronal circuits, we present a model
    for neural codes that accurately estimates the likelihood of individual spiking
    patterns and has a straightforward, scalable, efficient, learnable, and realistic
    neural implementation. This model’s performance on simultaneously recorded spiking
    activity of >100 neurons in the monkey visual and prefrontal cortices is comparable
    with or better than that of state-of-the-art models. Importantly, the model can
    be learned using a small number of samples and using a local learning rule that
    utilizes noise intrinsic to neural circuits. Slower, structural changes in random
    connectivity, consistent with rewiring and pruning processes, further improve
    the efficiency and sparseness of the resulting neural representations. Our results
    merge insights from neuroanatomy, machine learning, and theoretical neuroscience
    to suggest random sparse connectivity as a key design principle for neuronal computation.

  text: 'In prokaryotes, thermodynamic models of gene regulation provide a highly
    quantitative mapping from promoter sequences to gene-expression levels that is
    compatible with in vivo and in vitro biophysical measurements. Such concordance
    has not been achieved for models of enhancer function in eukaryotes. In equilibrium
    models, it is difficult to reconcile the reported short transcription factor (TF)
    residence times on the DNA with the high specificity of regulation. In nonequilibrium
    models, progress is difficult due to an explosion in the number of parameters.
    Here, we navigate this complexity by looking for minimal nonequilibrium enhancer
    models that yield desired regulatory phenotypes: low TF residence time, high specificity,
    and tunable cooperativity. We find that a single extra parameter, interpretable
    as the “linking rate,” by which bound TFs interact with Mediator components, enables
    our models to escape equilibrium bounds and access optimal regulatory phenotypes,
    while remaining consistent with the reported phenomenology and simple enough to
    be inferred from upcoming experiments. We further find that high specificity in
    nonequilibrium models is in a trade-off with gene-expression noise, predicting
    bursty dynamics—an experimentally observed hallmark of eukaryotic transcription.
    By drastically reducing the vast parameter space of nonequilibrium enhancer models
    to a much smaller subspace that optimally realizes biological function, we deliver
    a rich class of models that could be tractably inferred from data in the near
    future.'

  text: Organisms cope with change by taking advantage of transcriptional regulators.
    However, when faced with rare environments, the evolution of transcriptional regulators
    and their promoters may be too slow. Here, we investigate whether the intrinsic
    instability of gene duplication and amplification provides a generic alternative
    to canonical gene regulation. Using real-time monitoring of gene-copy-number mutations
    in Escherichia coli, we show that gene duplications and amplifications enable
    adaptation to fluctuating environments by rapidly generating copy-number and,
    therefore, expression-level polymorphisms. This amplification-mediated gene expression
    tuning (AMGET) occurs on timescales that are similar to canonical gene regulation
    and can respond to rapid environmental changes. Mathematical modelling shows that
    amplifications also tune gene expression in stochastic environments in which transcription-factor-based
    schemes are hard to evolve or maintain. The fleeting nature of gene amplifications
    gives rise to a generic population-level mechanism that relies on genetic heterogeneity
    to rapidly tune the expression of any gene, without leaving any genomic signature.

  text: 'We propose that correlations among neurons are generically strong enough
    to organize neural activity patterns into a discrete set of clusters, which can
    each be viewed as a population codeword. Our reasoning starts with the analysis
    of retinal ganglion cell data using maximum entropy models, showing that the population
    is robustly in a frustrated, marginally sub-critical, or glassy, state. This leads
    to an argument that neural populations in many other brain areas might share this
    structure. Next, we use latent variable models to show that this glassy state
    possesses well-defined clusters of neural activity. Clusters have three appealing
    properties: (i) clusters exhibit error correction, i.e., they are reproducibly
    elicited by the same stimulus despite variability at the level of constituent
    neurons; (ii) clusters encode qualitatively different visual features than their
    constituent neurons; and (iii) clusters can be learned by downstream neural circuits
    in an unsupervised fashion. We hypothesize that these properties give rise to
    a “learnable” neural code which the cortical hierarchy uses to extract increasingly
    complex features without supervision or reinforcement.'
