Variance of single trial estimates.

Above shows histograms of estimated activity levels collapsed across 20,000 runs of simulated data using ISI ~ U(0, 4) and noise std. = 0.8. LS-A estimates are shown in the left two panels and LS-S estimates are shown in the right two panels. Top two panels show distribution of estimates without mean centering and bottom two panels show the distribution of estimates with mean centering. The bootstrap confidence intervals for the standard deviations of each of the distributions are shown in text.
