A Spike Train Distance Robust to Firing Rate Changes Based on the Earth Mover’s Distance

Neural spike train analysis methods are mainly used for understanding the temporal aspects of neural information processing. One approach is to measure the dissimilarity between the spike trains of a pair of neurons, often referred to as the spike train distance. The spike train distance has been often used to classify neuronal units with similar […]
