Figure 9. Impact of memory on Reservoir decoding performance on reading out the spatial position of attention.

The light gray curve and bars corresponds to a reservoir training on a window of 75(as in all previous figures). The dark gray curve and bars corresponds to a reservoir training a larger time window (from cue onset at 0 ms to 700 ms post-cue). Decoding is performed on all FEF cell population activities. The bars show the mean readout performance and the associated standard error around this mean obtained by testing activities in a time window of 100 ms around the time reference point for training (245 ms after cue onset, N = 20 decoding runs). The curves show the mean readout performance and the associated standard error around this mean for each time point. Thick lines indicated values that are significantly above chance as calculated using a random permutation test (p<0.05).
