Summary
This thesis develops computational algorithms for analyzing neural connectivity from calcium imaging data and removing fiber-bundle image artifacts, advancing all-optical approaches to studying neural circuits. While primarily a neuroscience/engineering methods paper, the retinal application of these tools has indirect relevance to understanding photoreceptor and inner retinal cell signaling relevant to circadian light pathways.
