Are there multiple versions of the dataset? No -------------------------- METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION -------------------------- 1. Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: Behavioral Methods: Described in detail in the publication entitled: "Nonlinear processing of a multicomponent communication signal by combination-sensitive neurons in the anuran inferior colliculus.” Journal of Comparative Physiology A. J Comp Physiol A (2017) by Lee, N., Schrode, K.M. & Bee, M.A. Neurophysiology methods: Described in detail in the publication entitled: "Nonlinear processing of a multicomponent communication signal by combination-sensitive neurons in the anuran inferior colliculus.” Journal of Comparative Physiology A. J Comp Physiol A (2017) by Lee, N., Schrode, K.M. & Bee, M.A. 2. Methods for processing the data: Described in detail in the publication entitled: "Nonlinear processing of a multicomponent communication signal by combination-sensitive neurons in the anuran inferior colliculus.” Journal of Comparative Physiology A. J Comp Physiol A (2017) by Lee, N., Schrode, K.M. & Bee, M.A. 3. Instrument- or software-specific information needed to interpret the data: N/A. In the CSV file "Neural responses to unimodal and bimodal calls_spike_counts.csv", NAN indicates an invalid value. For example, a unit that responds with only a single spike to a stimulus will not have a valid inter-spike time interval. The interaction index was only calculated for combination senstive units (Commpressive Summation, Facilitation, Linear Summation, Suppressed by 0.9 kHz, Suppressed by 2.7 kHz). Cells left blank for units not classified as combination sensitive. 4. Standards and calibration information, if appropriate: N/A. 5. Environmental/experimental conditions: Described in detail in the publication entitled: "Nonlinear processing of a multicomponent communication signal by combination-sensitive neurons in the anuran inferior colliculus.” Journal of Comparative Physiology A. J Comp Physiol A (2017) by Lee, N., Schrode, K.M. & Bee, M.A. 6. Describe any quality-assurance procedures performed on the data: N/A. 7.
