Figure 12. Similarity of burst patterns in two simultaneously recorded preparations.

Figure 12

A) Clusters for the aggregated bursts of two omega-cell preparations recorded simultaneously in their natural habitat; no broadcast of artificial stimuli. Bursts from preparation 1 are drawn in red, and bursts from preparation 2 in black. Every cluster contains about half of its bursts from one preparation. B) Spike-time distance of the most similar burst in the same preparation in comparison to the most similar burst in the other preparation. The clustering of points around the diagonal shows that for every burst in one preparation the distance of the closest match in the same and in the other preparation are almost identical. C) Similarity of spiking times within bursts. For every spike at time t in a burst in one preparation we compute for different time windows Inline graphic how often there is a spike within a burst in the other preparation in the time window Inline graphic. We find that Inline graphic of all spikes have a corresponding spike in the other preparation within a 5 ms time window, and Inline graphic within a 10 ms time window.
