Noise and Natural Scene Statistics
(http://www.klab.caltech.edu/~pam/nnss/home.html)

The nervous systems of animals must encode and process sensory information in the context of noise, and the signals which are encoded (the images, sounds, etc. in the world) have very specific statistical properties. Both these factors influence the kinds of encodings neurons would have to use to optimally provide the organism with information about its environment. This web site is a resource for current research on these topics.
