SpikeDetectionCreastTrough¶

class spike_analysis.core.SpikeDetectionCreastTrough(reader_object, lim_creast='minimum', lim_trough='minimum', max_creast_trough_interval=2.0, tdelta=1.0, stimulus_period=1, stimulus_period_offset=0, upper_creast_threshold=np.inf, cellid='__no_cellid_assigned__', spike_time_mode='latest')¶

Detects spikes by creast and trough amplitude.

Parameters:¶

reader_object : LabViewReader¶

Reader object with get_voltage_traces and get_stim_times method, e.g. ReaderSmr

lim_creast : float|str¶

threshold above which a creast of a spike is detected as such. Needs to be float, "minimum", or "zero". If “minimum” or “zero” is chosen, the threashold will be set based on the histogram of all creasts. If “minimum” is chosen, lim_creast will be set to the first minimum in the histogram above or equal to \(0.4mV\). If “zero” is chosen, lim_creast will be set to the first empty bin.

lim_trough : float|str¶

want to use a negative value. lim creast and lim_trough need to be both floats, both “zero” or both “minimum”.

max_creast_trough_interval : float¶

Maximum interval between creast and trough such that a spike is recognized.

tdelta : float¶

minimum interval between spikes

stimulus_period : int¶

number of stimuli applied per trial. E.g., for paired pulse stimuli, it should be 2.

stimulus_period_offse : int

Number of stimulus that initiates first trial.

cellid : str¶

name to be used in spike times dataframe

Attributes:¶

lim_creast¶

lim_creast used for spike detection (if “minimum” or “zero” was defined, this will be the numeric value used)

Type:¶

lim_trough¶

lim_trough used for spike detection (if “minimum” or “zero” was defined, this will be the numeric value used)

Type:¶

float|str

st¶

spike times dataframe, one row per trial

Type:¶

pd.DataFrame

spike_times¶

all extracted spike times, fullfilling creast and trough criterion, filtered such thatthe minimal ISI is above tdelta.

Type:¶

Type:¶

list

_spike_times_trough¶
