Action Potential Detection in Extracellular Recordings Using "Truncation Thresholds"
Okatan, Murat; Kocaturk, Mehmet (IEEE, 2015)Spike trains of individual neurons can be recorded in awake behaving subjects using extracellular electrodes that are chronically implanted into the brain. Analyzing the information contained in these spike trains involves ... -
Firing Rate Dependence of "Truncation Thresholds"
Okatan, Murat; Kocaturk, Mehmet (IEEE, 2015)Single unit action potentials that are found in extracellular neural recordings are often detected using a threshold. The threshold is usually computed as proportional to the standard deviation of the entire recording. ... -
High Performance Decoding of Behavioral Information from Background Activity in Extracellular Neural Recordings
Okatan, Murat; Kocaturk, Mehmet (IEEE, 2018)The usual approach to extracting information from extracellular neural recordings is to set an amplitude threshold and extract the information contained in suprathreshold data. Subthreshold data, on the other hand, contain ... -
Truncation thresholds: a pair of spike detection thresholds computed using truncated probability distributions
Okatani, Murat; Kocaturk, Mehmet (TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2017)We describe a method for computing a pair of spike detection thresholds, called 'truncation thresholds', using truncated probability distributions, for extracellular recordings. In existing methods the threshold is usually ...
