Neurophysiological Point Process Data

Description

This dataset, neuro_pointprocess_matrix, is a matrix containing times of observed neuronal firing in windows of 250ms surrounding stimulus application in human subjects. Each row represents an experimental replication (469 total replicates), with values indicating spike times relative to stimulus onset.

Usage

data(neuro_pointprocess_matrix)

Format

A numeric matrix with 469 observations (rows) and 6 variables (columns):

[,1:6]

Numeric: Spike times (milliseconds) relative to stimulus onset, with NA representing no spike in that trial window

Details

The dataset name has been kept as 'neuro_pointprocess_matrix' to avoid confusion with other datasets in the R ecosystem. This naming convention helps distinguish this dataset as part of the NeuroDataSets package. The suffix 'matrix' indicates that the dataset is a matrix. The original content has not been modified.
