Burton, Matt Wachowiak, Vladimir ItskovNeural representations in the olfactory bulb (OB) remain poorly understood compared to well-established coding principles in other sensory systems. This difficulty arises because a natural coordinate system for olfactory stimulus space has not yet been identified, complicating the characterization of neural receptive fields analogous to those in other sensory modalities. Moreover, the extent to which these tuning properties are spatially organized within the OB remains unclear. To advance our understanding of the olfactory coding, we introduce an interpretable method of Shapley fields, as an olfactory analog of retinotopic receptive fields. Shapley fields are spatial distributions of chemical feature importance for the tuning of OB glomeruli. We used this tool to investigate chemotopy in the OB with diverse sets of chemical features using widefield epifluorescence recordings of the mouse dorsal OB in response to stimuli across a wide range of the chemical space. We found that Shapley fields reveal a weak chemotopic organization of the chemical feature sensitivity of dorsal OB glomeruli. This organization was consistent across animals and mostly agreed across very different chemical feature sets: (i) the expert-curated PubChem database features and (ii) features derived from a Graph Neural Network trained on human olfactory perceptual tasks. This chemotopy involved at least three chemical feature dimensions, rather than one or two dominant properties. Moreover, we found that the principal components of the Shapley fields corresponded to single commonly accepted chemical classification groups. This implies that these chemical groups could have been identified purely from the mouse olfactory responses. Our findings suggest that Shapley fields may serve as a chemical feature-agnostic method for investigating olfactory perception.
