Statistics of spike trains

This notebook provides an overview of the functions provided by the elephant statistics module.

Spike Pattern Detection and Evaluation (SPADE)
Level: advanced Type: user documentation
SPADE is a method to detect repeated spatio-temporal activity patterns in parallel spike train data that occur in excess to chance expectation. In this tutorial, we will use SPADE to detect the simplest type of such patterns, synchronous events that are found across a subset of the neurons considered.
The Unitary Events Analysis
Level: advanced Type: user documentation
The Unitary Event analysis detects coordinated spiking activity that occurs significantly more often than predicted by the firing rates of neurons alone. It’s therefore superior to simple statistics. This tutorial will show you how to use this analysis in Elephant.
