macaque prefrontal cortex (data courtesy of Prof. Nieder). The task

of the monkey was to discriminate point-sets with 1 to 4 points. The

first column contains the number of points shown plus one. The

remaining columns contain the spike response across 1300\,ms. During
|

the first 500\,ms the monkey was fixating a target. The next 800\,ms the

stimulus was shown. This was followed by 1000\,ms delay time before

the monkey was allowed to respond.
