(a) Regression fit using LOCFIT. A local regression fit, along with confidence intervals, where the independent variable was time and the dependent variable was simulated voltage from a cell. (b) Firing-rate estimate: LOCFIT can be used to estimate firing-rate given a sequence of spike times based on a local Poisson likelihood. Also shown are the LOCFIT computed 95% local confidence bands around the smoothed rate estimate. For comparison a histogram is also shown.
