NeuroAI: If grid cells are the answer, is path integration the question?
2023
Abstract
Spatially modulated neurons known as grid cells are thought to play an important role in spatial cognition. A new study has found that units with grid-cell-like properties can emerge within artificial neural networks trained to path integrate, and developed a unifying theory explaining the formation of these cells which shows what circuit constraints are necessary and how learned systems carry out path integration.
