abstract = {The generation of surrogate data, i.e., the modification of
data to destroy a certain feature, can be considered as the
implementation of a null-hypothesis whenever an analytical
approach is not feasible. Thus, surrogate data generation
has been extensively used to assess the significance of
spike correlations in parallel spike trains. In this
context, one of the main challenges is to properly construct
the desired null-hypothesis distribution and to avoid
altering the single spike train statistics. A classical
surrogate technique is uniform dithering (UD), which
displaces spikes locally and uniformly distributed, to
destroy temporal properties on a fine timescale while
keeping them on a coarser one. Here, we compare UD against
five similar surrogate techniques in the context of the
detection of significant spatiotemporal spike patterns. We
evaluate the surrogates for their performance, first on
spike trains based on point process models with constant
firing rate, and second on modeled nonstationary artificial
data to assess the potential detection of false positive
(FP) patterns in a more complex and realistic setting. We
determine which statistical features of the spike trains are
modified and to which extent. Moreover, we find that UD
fails as an appropriate surrogate because it leads to a loss
of spikes in the context of binning and clipping, and thus
to a large number of FP patterns. The other surrogates
achieve a better performance in detecting precisely timed
higher-order correlations. Based on these insights, we
analyze experimental data from the pre-/motor cortex of
macaque monkeys during a reaching-and-grasping task.},
