Robust point-process Granger causality analysis in presence of exogenous temporal modulations and trial-by-trial variability in spike trains

Assessing directional influences between neurons is instrumental to understand how brain circuits process information. To this end, Granger causality, a technique originally developed for time-continuous signals, has been extended to discrete spike trains. A fundamental assumption of this technique...
