Representation of Time-Varying Stimuli by a Network Exhibiting Oscillations on a Faster Time Scale

Figure 3

The binning procedure.

A Population response to stimulus with shape parameter starting at time is shown in a raster format, similar to Figure 2. In our binary representation of the response, firing of cells in the coding population were binned to time intervals of single gamma cycles. The boundaries of the bins were defined by the mean spike times of the inhibitory cell population plus a 4.5 ms - shown by the vertical dotted lines. B Binary representation of the network response in A. The activity of every cell in the coding population during the three gamma cycles in which stimulus is presented is shown by a single row in the matrix. Every row is divided into three columns that show the firing of the cell during each gamma cycle in black (fired) and white (did not fire).
