“…Metric based on finite-size scaling of correlations-Following previous work [16], we computed the connected correlation function on a window of size W , as the correlation of the fluctuations of the neuronal activity, with respect to it's instantaneous spatial average [12-14, 16, 21-25]: where δ(r − r ij ) is a smoothed Dirac δ function selecting pairs of neuron states at a distance r (in practice, we have computed C W (r) for integer values of r, averaging all points at distances (r − 0.5, r + 0.5]); r ij is the Euclidean distance from the site i to site j; δv i is the value of the signal v i of site i at time t, after subtracting the the instantaneous spatial average of signals…”
