spike_count¶

biophysics_fitting.ephys.spike_count(t, v, thresh=None)¶

Counts the number of spikes in a voltage trace.

Parameters:¶

t : array_like¶

Time values of the voltage trace, in seconds.

v : array_like¶

Voltage values of the trace, in volts.

thresh : float, optional¶

Spike detection threshold, in volts. If not specified, the threshold will be set to the mean of the voltage trace.

Returns:¶

The number of spikes detected in the trace.

Return type:¶
