is a self-supervised method for non-linear clustering that allows for label-informed time series analysis.
It can jointly use behavioral and neural data in a hypothesis- or discovery-driven manner to produce consistent, high-performance latent spaces. While it is not specific to neural and behavioral data, this is the first domain we used the tool in. This application case is to obtain a consistent representation of latent variables driving activity and behavior, improving decoding accuracy of behavioral variables over standard supervised learning, and obtaining embeddings which are robust to domain shifts.
