Estimating the Information Extracted by a Single Spiking Neuron from a Continuous Input Time Series
Understanding the relation between (sensory) stimuli and the activity of neurons (i.e., “the neural code”) lies at heart of understanding the computational properties of the brain. However, quantifying the information between a stimulus and a spike train has proven to be challenging. We propose a ne...
