  • Title: Detection of synchrony in the discharge of a population of neurons. I. Development of a synchronization index.
    Author: Hamm TM, Roscoe DD, Reinking RM, Stuart DG.
    Journal: J Neurosci Methods; 1985 Mar; 13(1):37-50. PubMed ID: 2985882.
    Abstract:
    A test for synchronization among the spike trains of muscle afferents or motor units is described which utilizes averages of neurograms and rectified neurograms. Synchronization is quantified by the increase of a synchronization index Is above a theoretical value for asynchrony. The dependence of the Is on signal amplitude and certain experimental conditions and a method of estimating confidence limits for the test are presented.
