AB The magnitude of correlations between stimulus-driven responses of
   pairs of neurons can itself be stimulus dependent. We examine how this
   dependence affects the information carried by neural populations about
   the stimuli that drive them. Stimulus-dependent changes in correlations
   can both carry information directly and modulate the information
   separately carried by the firing rates and variances. We use Fisher
   information to quantify these effects and show that, although
   stimulus-dependent correlations often carry little information
   directly, their modulatory effects on the overall information can be
   large. In particular, if the stimulus dependence is such that
   correlations increase with stimulus-induced firing rates, this can
   significantly enhance the information of the population when the
   structure of correlations is determined solely by the stimulus.
   However, in the presence of additional strong spatial decay of
   correlations, such stimulus dependence may have a negative impact.
   Opposite relationships hold when correlations decrease with firing
   rates.

AB We study the reliability of phase oscillator networks in response to
   fluctuating inputs. Reliability means that an input elicits essentially
   identical responses upon repeated presentations, regardless of the
   network's initial condition. Single oscillators are well known to be
   reliable. We show in this paper that unreliable behavior can occur in a
   network as small as a coupled oscillator pair in which the signal is
   received by the first oscillator and relayed to the second with
   feedback. A geometric explanation based on shear-induced chaos at the
   onset of phase-locking is proposed. We treat larger networks as
   decomposed into modules connected by acyclic graphs, and give a
   mathematical analysis of the acyclic parts. Moreover, for networks in
   this class, we show how the source of unreliability can be localized,
   and address questions concerning downstream propagation of
   unreliability once it is produced.
