Estimating the number of neurons in multi-neuronal spike trains
A common way of studying the relationship between neural activity and behavior is through the analysis of neuronal spike trains that are recorded using one or more electrodes implanted in the brain. Each spike train typically contains spikes generated by multiple neu-rons. A natural question that arises is " what is the number of neu-rons ν generating the spike train? " This article proposes a ...
متن کاملNeuronal Spike Trains
ABsTRAcr In a growing class of neurophysiological experiments, the train of impulses ("spikes") produced by a nerve cell is subjected to statistical treatment involving the time intervals between spikes. The statistical techniques available for the analysis of single spike trains are described and related to the underlying mathematical theory, that of stochastic point processes, i.e., of stocha...
متن کاملEstimating the Entropy Rate of Spike Trains
Information-theoretic methods have been widely used in neuroscience, in the broad effort to analyze and understand the fundamental informationprocessing tasks performed by the brain. In these studies, the entropy has been adopted as the main measure for quantifying the amount of information transmitted between neurons, via the spike trains they generate. One of the first and most important goal...
متن کاملPrimer: The deconstruction of neuronal spike trains
As information flows through the brain, neuronal firing progresses from encoding the world as sensed by the animal to driving the motor output of subsequent behavior. One of the more tractable goals of quantitative neuroscience is to develop predictive models that relate the sensory or motor streams with neuronal firing. Here we review and contrast analytical tools used to accomplish this task....
