Estimating Transfer Entropy in Continuous Time Between Neural Spike Trains or Other Event-Based Data
Fig 2
Evaluation of the continuous-time estimator on independent homogeneous Poisson processes.
The solid line shows the average TE rate across multiple runs and the shaded area spans from one standard deviation below the mean to one standard deviation above it. Plots are shown for two different values of k nearest neighbours, and four different values of the ratio of the number of sample points to the number of events NU/NX (See Methods).
