Gap junctions promote correlated spiking between coupled neurons. Recording from pairs of coupled retinal ganglion cells, we find that differences in firing rate between coupled neurons dictates which cell leads correlated spike-pairs, and that the precise temporal order of spike activity between pairs of cells changes depending on the spatial position of a visual stimulus. We thus demonstrate a spike order spatial code for encoding sensory information.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
