sttc: Compute STTC for a pair of spike trains

In meaRtools: Micro-Electro Array (MEA) Analysis

Description

Compute STTC for a pair of spike trains

Usage

sttc(a, b, dt = 0.05, rec_time = NULL)

Arguments

a	first spike train
b	second spike train
dt	bin size in seconds
rec_time	2-element vector: start and end time

Details

The Spike Time Tiling correlation (STTC) is computed for a pair of spike trains. The method is defined in Cutts and Eglen (2014). We assume that the spike trains are ordered, smallest-time first.

Value

STTC a scalar bounded between -1 and +1.

Examples

a = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
b = a+0.01
c = a+0.5
sttc(a, b)==1
sttc(a, c)==0
