Spike-triggered covariance (STC) is a computational technique used in neuroscience to analyze how the spiking activity of a neuron's action potentials (or 'spikes') relates to the sensory stimuli that the neuron receives. The method helps to identify the preferred stimulus features that drive neuron firing. ### Key Concepts of Spike-Triggered Covariance: 1. **Spike Train:** The sequence of spikes emitted by a neuron over time in response to stimuli.
