Faster Matlab code for Multineuronal Spike Time Metric, Parallel in q and k
function labdist_faster_qk_mat = labdist_faster_qkpara(sa,la,sb,lb,q,k)
% LABDIST_FASTER_QKPARA(SA,LA,SB,LB,Q,K), parallel in q and k
% Calculates the multi-unit metric distance between two spike trains
% Uses a fast version of the algorithm
% SA, SB - spike times on the two spike trains
% LA, LB - spike labels (positive integers)
% Q - vector of timing precision parameters
% K - vector of label reassigning parameters
