Show more >Classifying neurons in different types is still an open challenge. In the retina, recent works have taken advantage of the ability to record from a large number of cells to classify ganglion cells into different types based on functional information. Although the first attempts in this direction used the receptive field properties of each cell to classify them, more recent approaches have proposed to cluster ganglion cells directly based on their response to stimuli. These two approaches have not been compared directly. Here, we recorded the responses of a large number of ganglion cells and compared two methods for classifying them into functional groups, one based on the receptive field properties, and the other one using directly their responses to stimuli with various temporal frequencies. We show that the response-based approach allows separation of more types than the receptive field-based method, leading to a better classification. This better granularity is due to the fact that the response-based method takes into account not only the linear part of ganglion cell function but also some of the nonlinearities. A careful characterization of nonlinear processing is thus key to allowing functional classification of sensory neurons.Show less >
