Summary of the conservation of the statistical properties of the six surrogate techniques
| Feature/method | UD | UDD | ISI-D | JISI-D | TR-SHIFT | WIN-SHUFF |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ISI | No | No | Approx. | Approx. | Yes | Approx. |
| Dead-time | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
| Auto-correlation | No | No | No | No | Yes | Approx. |
| Firing rate modulation | Approx. | Approx. | Approx. | Approx. | Approx. | Approx. |
| Spike train regularity (CV < 1; regular) | No | No | Approx. | Approx. | Yes | No |
| Spike train regularity (CV > 1; bursty) | No | No | Approx. | Approx. | Yes | Approx. |
The degree of conservation is marked as yes/approx./no. The dead-time conservation is evaluated based only on the results of the PPD process, otherwise on the results for all data models (Poisson, PPD, Gamma).
