Inferring network connectivity from event timing patterns

Published in Physical Review Letters, 2018

Inference method for identifying synaptic interactions from spiking patterns based on a mapping of the spiking activity onto event spaces, where the connectivity can be estimated locally by approximating the interspike interval generating function.
