The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) based on the best set of parameters (skewness of the ISI-distribution, AP duration, relative AP trough and the precision of spiking (log(σ2)) showed a strong trend to classify mSN DA neurons into dorsal or ventral striatum projecting cells with a predictive power of 70.8%, when using half of the data set for training (p<0.07).
