proposal that the variability of neural population responses encodes whole probability distributions, so neurons can carry out Bayesian inference by simple operations.

In computational cognitive science, probabilistic population codes refers to proposal that the variability of neural population responses encodes whole probability distributions, so neurons can carry out Bayesian inference by simple operations. This meaning comes from Ma (2006) in Nature Neuroscience.[1]
