save_cells_landmark_files_vtk¶

visualize.vtk.save_cells_landmark_files_vtk(sa, synapse_location_pdf, times_to_show, outdir, celltypes=None, tspan=1, set_index=['synapse_ID', 'celltype'])¶

Save synapse activations as vtk point cloud files for each timepoint.

Given a synapse activation dataframe and a synapse location dataframe, this method saves the synapse locations as vtk point cloud files for each timepoint in times_to_show.

Parameters:¶

• sa (pd.DataFrame) – Synapse activation dataframe.

• synapse_location_pdf (pd.DataFrame) – Synapse location dataframe.

• times_to_show (list) – List of timepoints to save the data for.

• outdir (str) – Directory to save the files to.

• celltypes (list, optional) – List of celltypes to save the data for. Defaults to None.

• tspan (int, optional) – Time span to show. Defaults to 1.

• set_index (list, optional) – Index to set in the synapse activation dataframe. Defaults to [‘synapse_ID’, ‘celltype’].

Returns:¶

None. Writes out a .vtk file for each timepoint in times_to_show.
