\section*{Reverse reconstruction of the stimulus evoking neuronal responses.}
During the course we have used the Spike-Triggered-Average to
reconstruct the stimulus
reconstruct the stimulus a neuron has been stimulated with.

\question In the accompanying files you find the spike responses of
P-units and pyramidal neurons of the weakly electric fish
\textit{Apteronotus leptorhynchus}. The respective stimuli are
stored in separate files. Start with the P-unit and, in the end,
apply the same functions to the pyramidal data.
\begin{parts}
\part Estimate the STA and plot it for each of the cells.
\part Estimate the STA and plot it.
\part Implement a function that estimates the reconstruction
error using the mean-square-error and express it relative to the
variance of the original stimulus.
