Extended Data Fig. 9: The variance of the burst probability decreases during learning.
From: Burst-dependent synaptic plasticity can coordinate learning in hierarchical circuits

a, Variance of the burst probability as a function of the epoch for the MNIST task, for each layer in a network with 3 hidden layers with 500 units each. b, Variance of the burst probability as a function of the test error, showing that the magnitude of the variance is correlated with the test error.
