The efficient coding hypothesis proposes that early sensory neurons transmit maximal information about sensory stimuli, given internal constraints such as metabolic cost of firing a spike or noise. This theory predicts that neurons should adapt to the stimulus statistics and invest most resources on encoding surprising stimuli. Previous results from Schwartz and colleagues showed that some ganglion cells in the axolotl retina respond to an omitted flash in a periodic sequence of flashes (termed the omitted stimulus response, OSR), suggesting that these cells code for unexpected stimuli rather than for physical luminance. However, so far there was no quantitative validation of this assumption. To test this hypothesis, we varied the level of ...
