Discuss the meaning of spike cluster ID in data set hc-11.

Does the spike cluster ID in hc-11 refer to the ID of a neuron or the ID of a class of neuron populations?

Hi Lanzai - I haven't actually looked at this dataset in several years, but I'm pretty sure the cluster ID would refer to individual neurons, not classes. The easiest way to make sure would be to check how many unique cluster ID's there are per data set: if there are more than 2 unique IDs then they refer to individual neurons given that, as far as I remember the only neural 'classes' described in the dataset are putative pyramidal and interneuron cells. Hope this helps. -Andres
