Spike Train Recordings from Dorsal Anterior Cingulate Cortex in Monkeys

Comprising spike train recordings from single neurons and pairs of neurons in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) of Rhesus monkeys performing a behavioral adaptation task. The data was used to analyze spatiotemporal spike coding in relation to feedback events and behavioral response times. The analysis identified optimal decoding time scales between 70–200 ms.

Use Cases

• Analyze spatiotemporal spike patterns from single units to predict behavioral response time in monkeys.
• Compare spike-count versus spike-timing sensitive decoders using spike train metrics from dACC neurons.
• Investigate how spiking pattern features vary between jointly recorded neuron pairs during behavioral adaptation.
• Assess the performance of biologically plausible decoding circuits on spike train data from frontal cortex recordings.

Strengths

• Data originates from a controlled neuroscience study investigating spatiotemporal coding in the dACC.
• Analysis identified a specific optimal decoding time scale range of 70–200 ms for feedback signals.
• Dataset includes recordings from both single units and pairs of simultaneously recorded neurons.

Limitations

• Sample size, row count, and specific file formats are unknown from the provided input.
• Data is limited to Rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta), which may limit direct applicability to human neuroscience.
• The dataset's last update was in June 2020, potentially making it stale for rapidly advancing computational methods.
