Noise level is represented in terms of its standard deviation relative to the peak amplitude of the spikes. All spike classes had a peak value of 1. The absolute number of false matching spikes is shown in the column 8 as the outcome of our algorithm corresponding to the datasets containing noisy spikes (column 2).
