The limited responsiveness of single-channel recording systems results in some brief events not being detected, and if this is ignored parameter estimation from the observed data will be biased. Statistical methods of correcting for this limited time resolution in a two-state Markov model have been proposed by Neher (1983. J. Physiol. (Lond.). 339:663-678) and by Colquhoun and Sigworth (1983. Single Channel Recording. 191-263). However, a numerical study by Blatz and Magleby (1986. Biophys. J. 49:967-980) indicated differences of 3-40% in the corrected values given by the two techniques. Here we explain why Neher's method produces biased results and the Colquhoun and Sigworth approach, which is no more difficult, provides reasonably accurate estimates.
单通道记录系统的响应能力有限,导致一些短暂事件无法被检测到,如果忽略这一点,从观测数据进行的参数估计将会有偏差。Neher(1983年,《生理学杂志》(伦敦)。339:663 - 678)以及Colquhoun和Sigworth(1983年,《单通道记录》。191 - 263)提出了在双态马尔可夫模型中校正这种有限时间分辨率的统计方法。然而,Blatz和Magleby(1986年,《生物物理学杂志》。49:967 - 980)的一项数值研究表明,这两种技术给出的校正值存在3% - 40%的差异。在此我们解释为什么Neher的方法会产生有偏差的结果,而Colquhoun和Sigworth的方法并不更难,却能提供合理准确的估计。
