We consider the issue of how to read out the information from nonstationary spike train ensembles. Based on the theory of censored data in statistics, we propose a ‘censored’ m...
Stimulus selectivity of sensory neurons is often characterized by estimating their receptive field properties such as orientation selectivity. Receptive fields are usually deriv...
Nearby neurons in the visual cortex often partially synchronize their spiking activity. Despite the widespread observation of this phenomenon, its importance for visual coding and...

The signature of neuronal assemblies is the higher-order correlation structure of the spiking activity of the participating neurons. Due to the rapid progress in recording technol...
Stimulus selectivity of sensory systems is often characterized by analyzing responseconditioned stimulus ensembles. However, in many cases these response-triggered stimulus sets h...
