neat, but why only focus on subvoxels? a non-smooth but very low-freq signal wd also show up with fMRI, no?

also, parsimony is a v. weak constraint here. even if some signal is smooth, plenty is probably non-smooth

if I understand correctly, you mean plenty in the brain is most definitely not smooth? Yes. I agree 1/2

I left a comment on biorxiv that will hopefully show up soon. but briefly—I think it’s inaccurate to say 1/

that results show that some neural codes are implausible. they provide pos. evidence for _one_ scheme. 2/

but as you acknowledge, we _know_ there are other neural codes all over the place. 3/

Replying to @talyarkoni @o_guest and
and conclusion that “neural code must be smooth” at subvox isn’t true—it could be supravoxel non smooth

Thx so much for comment. Twitter & my tiredness make it hard to communicate right now. So I will wait.
