Itay Baruchi and his Ph.D. supervisor, Eshel Ben-Jacob, introduced the Functional Holography (FH) methodology.
[11] The new approach is based on the realization that task-performing networks follow some underlying principles that should be reflected and therefore be detected in their activity.
Where the analysis is designed to decipher the existence of simple causal motives that are expected to be embedded in the observed complex activity of the networks are noticeable.
These and other special features of hologram are due to the way the information is encoded on the films—not a direct projection of the picture in real space but in the correlations between the pixels.
The above properties of holograms guided the development and are the rationale behind the functional holography method presented here.
