I have three samples of sheep's neuronal signal collected.
1. 5 sec from spontaneous base line
2. 5sec from visual presentation
3. 5 sec from object moving
I want to plot CV vs mean of ISI of each cases, as I saw in many
paper, and compared it. I can plot an ISI graph vs number of spike, at
bin =10ms, 20ms.but I don't know how to plot mean of ISI vs CV graph.
I have no idea. could you please explain me step by step or link where
i can read it. also how to plot Fano vs spike count distribution. I
use a matlab program as a tool to analyze it. I think, I don't have a
problem in matlab programming. I have problems in definition and how
to plot it. I read a book "Methods in neuronal modeling", edited by
Christof Koch and Idan Segev but I still no idea.
