Spike Code Flow in Cultured Neuronal Networks

Figure 5

Spectrum of the detected codes with bit widths of 0.6–2.0 ms. We can see that the major component of the code spectrum is that of three bits (code number 1-21). Four bits or more codes (code number 22-120) are far less than that. Random train has flat spectrum within three-bit codes while the original train has its own shape. Interval shuffled and electrode shuffled spike trains show intermediate spectrum profiles.
