Most of this work has focused on capturing the measured correlations among pairs of neurons. Here we suggest an alternative, constructing models that are consistent with the distribution of global network activity, i.e. the probability that K out of N cells in the network generate action potentials in the same small time bin. The inverse problem that we need to solve in constructing the model is analytically tractable, and provides a natural 'thermodynamics' for the network in the limit of large N. We analyze the responses of neurons in a small patch of the retina to naturalistic stimuli, and find that the implied thermodynamics is very close to an unusual critical point, in which the entropy (in proper units) is exactly equal to the energy. © 2013 IOP Publishing Ltd and SISSA Medialab srl.\r\n"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1207.6319","open_access":"1"}],"oa":1,"oa_version":"Preprint","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:59:55Z","publisher":"IOP Publishing Ltd.","scopus_import":1,"title":"The simplest maximum entropy model for collective behavior in a neural network","quality_controlled":"1","status":"public"}
