\question The Fano factor $\frac{\sigma^2}{\mu}$ is a common measure
in neural coding because a Poisson process---for which each spike is
independent of every other---has a Fano factor of one.
\question The Fano factor $F=\frac{\sigma^2}{\mu}$ relates the
variance of a spike count $\sigma^2$ to the mean spike count
$\mu$. It is a common measure in neural coding because a Poisson
process---for which each spike is independent of every other---has a
Fano factor of one.
The table contains spike counts from a neuron measured in twelve
trials.

hypothesis that the spike counts come from a Poisson process.
