The paper presents a discrete generative model for neuronal spiking activity recorded on microelectrode arrays. It uses a shared vocabulary of spatiotemporal motifs learned by a residual vector‑quantized autoencoder and predicts motif occurrence with a factorized masked transformer. Evaluated on 31 assays from human brain organoids and ex vivo hippocampal tissue, the model achieves superior reconstruction and generation performance compared to baselines and shows that motifs are largely reused across assays.

BrainWideBench is a benchmark that evaluates across‑animal transfer on multi‑region neural recordings from 139 mice, covering 276 brain regions. It comprises three task suites—behavior decoding, neural activity prediction, and anatomical organization recovery—to test whether learned representations support diverse downstream objectives. The benchmark shows that while pretraining improves performance over single‑session baselines, current methods vary in transfer ability and none perform uniformly well across all suites, highlighting the challenge of developing general‑purpose neural representations.
