摘      要：We apply the recently developed information distortion method (Comput. Neural Systems 12 (4) (2001) 441) to the analysis of coding by single neurons in the cricket cercal sensory system. This technique allows simultaneous identification of stimulus features and corresponding neural responses. The best approximation of a coding scheme that we obtained suggests that significant information is encoded in spike patterns, We compare this method to the linear stimulus reconstruction approach. Our coarsest nontrivial reproduction completely recovers the stimulus reconstruction results. Further refinements uncover additional structure, not present in the stimulus reconstruction results.
