Random Bin for Analyzing Neuron Spike Trains

Abstract EN

When analyzing neuron spike trains, it is always the problem of how to set the time bin.

Bin width affects much to analyzed results of such as periodicity of the spike trains.

Many approaches have been proposed to determine the bin setting.

However, these bins are fixed through the analysis.

In this paper, we propose a randomizing method of bin width and location instead of conventional fixed bin setting.

This technique is applied to analyzing periodicity of interspike interval train.

Also the sensitivity of the method is presented.
