Linear Look-ahead in Conjunctive Cells: An Entorhinal Mechanism for Vector-Based Navigation

The crisp organization of the firing bumps of entorhinal grid cells and conjunctive cells leads to the notion that the entorhinal cortex may compute linear navigation routes. Specifically, we propose a process, termed linear look-ahead, by which a stationary animal could compute a series of location...
