Information carried by population spike times in the whisker sensory cortex can be decoded without knowledge of stimulus time

Computational analyses have revealed that precisely timed spikes emitted by somatosensory cortical neuronal populations encode basic stimulus features in the rat’s whisker sensory system. Efficient spike time based decoding schemes both for the spatial location of a stimulus and for the ki...
