Sensory neurons respond to a stimulus, such as light or sound with temporal sequences of electric pulses known as action potentials. Action potentials carry information about a stimulus in temporal sequences. Little is known, however, about how groups of neurons convey information, in part because of the complexity of natural stimuli and also because of neurons' complex dynamics that make them respond with spike patterns. Spike patterns, a tightly packed group of action potentials followed by a quiet period, are also known as a burst. Another kind of pattern is alternating time intervals between action potentials: a long interval followed by a short one, followed by a long one, knownas a nonrenewal pattern. Here we hypothesize that both bur...
