Robust Estimation of Sparse Narrowband Spectra from Neuronal Spiking Data

Conclusion: Our technique allows us to analyze the harmonic structure of spiking activity in a robust fashion, independently of the local field potentials, and without any prior assumption of the spect- al spread and content of the underlying neural processes. Significance: Other than its usage in the spectral analysis of neuronal spiking data, our technique can be applied to a wide variety of binary data, such as heart beat data, in order to obtain a robust spectral representation.
