Figure 8.
Real-world MUA spike trains of eight tetrodes recorded from the primary somatosensory cortex of one rat (note that each tetrode might contain varying number of single cells). (a) A selected 5 s segment of the MUA spike trains during SWS and its UP and DOWN state classification via the threshold-based method (segmented by the thick solid line). (b) The hidden state estimation result obtained from the discrete-time HMM (used as the initial state for the continuous-time RJMCMC sampler). (c) The hidden state estimation obtained from the MCEM algorithm. In this example, the MCEM algorithm merged several neighboring sojourns that were decoded differently from the HMM.
