Figure 3.23: Example spike wave<strong>for</strong>ms assigned to different clusters by the DPMFA model using<br />

the whole wave<strong>for</strong>ms as inputs. The wave<strong>for</strong>ms assigned to clusters 1, 2 and 3 have<br />

similar amplitude characteristics. There<strong>for</strong>e, they were assumed to belong to one<br />

big cluster in manual clustering since they have similar amplitude characteristics.<br />

DPMFA can discover that they should belong to different clusters by using the<br />

wave<strong>for</strong>m in<strong>for</strong>mation. On the other hand, the wave<strong>for</strong>ms assigned to the clusters<br />

c6 and c7 appear to be very similar. It is possible that due to the incremental<br />

updates, the sampler fails to merge these two components together which belong<br />

to the same cluster. This is also the case <strong>for</strong> the wave<strong>for</strong>ms assigned to components<br />

c8 and c9.<br />
