artículo de publicación periódica.listelement.badge Classification based on dynamic mode decomposition applied to brain recognition of context(2021-09) Martínez, Sebastián; Silva, Azul; García Violini, Demián; Piriz, Joaquin; Belluscio, Mariano; Sánchez-Peña, Ricardo"Local Field Potentials (LFPs) are easy to access electrical signals of the brain that represent the summation in the extracellular space, of currents originated within the neurons. As such, LFPs could contain infor mation about ongoing computations in neuronal circuits and could potentially be used to design brain machine interface algorithms. However how brain computations could be decoded from LFPs is not clear. Within this context, a methodology for signal classification is proposed in this study, particularly based on the Dynamic Mode Decomposition method, in conjunction with binary clustering routines based on supervised learning. Note that, although the classification methodology is presented here in the context of a biological problem, it can be applied to a broad range of applications. Then, as a case-study, the proposed method is validated with the classification of LFP-based brain cognitive states. All the analysis, signals, and results shown in this study consider real data measured in the hippocampus, in rats perform ing exploration tasks. Consequently, it is shown that, using the measured LFP, the method infers which context was the animal exploring. Thus, evidence on the spatial codification in LFP signals is consequently provided, which still is an open question in neuroscience."artículo de publicación periódica.listelement.badge Volume-conducted origin of the field potential at the lateral habenula(2020-01) Bertone-Cueto, Nicolás I.; Makarova, Julia; Mosqueira, Alejo; García Violini, Demián; Sánchez-Peña, Ricardo; Herreras, Oscar; Belluscio, Mariano; Piriz, Joaquín"Field potentials (FPs) are easily reached signals that provide information about the brain’s processing. However, FP should be interpreted cautiously since their biophysical bases are complex. The lateral habenula (LHb) is a brain structure involved in the encoding of aversive motivational values. Previous work indicates that the activity of the LHb is relevant for hippocampal-dependent learning. Moreover, it has been proposed that the interaction of the LHb with the hippocampal network is evidenced by the synchronization of LHb and hippocampal FPs during theta rhythm. However, the origin of the habenular FP has not been analyzed. Hence, its validity as a measurement of LHb activity has not been proven. In this work, we used electrophysiological recordings in anesthetized rats and feed-forward modeling to investigate biophysical basis of the FP recorded in the LHb. Our results indicate that the FP in the LHb during theta rhythm is a volume-conducted signal from the hippocampus. This result highlight that FPs must be thoroughly analyzed before its biological interpretation and argues against the use of the habenular FP signal as a readout of the activity of the LHb."
