neo_utils module¶

neo_utils.getmeanspikerateonepoch(seg, epoch_name)¶

Compute the mean firing rate on the epoch specified by its name epoch_name

Parameters:	seg : Neo Segment Input Neo Segment epoch_name : str Name of the epoch
Returns:	spkrate_per_epoch : float Mean spiking rate on the epoch in Hz (n_spikes / epoch_duration)

neo_utils.spiketrainrejectaroundevent(spiketrain, t_event, t_pre, t_post)¶

Reject spikes around an event, from a Neo SpikeTrain. Reject spikes occuring in the window [t_event-t_pre < t_reject < t_event+t_post].

Parameters:	spiketrain : Neo SpikeTrain Input Neo SpikeTrain t_event : float Time of the event (s) t_pre : float Time kept before the event (s) t_post : float Time kept after the event (s)
Returns:	spiketrainsel : Neo SpikeTrain SpikeTrain without the spikes rejected spiketimesel : array Time of the selected spikes (all spikes minus the rejected ones)

neo_utils.spiketrainselectaroundevent(spiketrain, t_event, t_pre, t_post, shifttime=1)¶

Select spikes on a Neo spiketrain occuring before and after an event. Select spikes occuring in the window [t_event-t_pre < t_sel < t_event+t_post]. If shifttime = 1, the spike times are shifted so that t_event is set to 0

Parameters:	spiketrain : Neo SpikeTrain Input Neo SpikeTrain t_event : float Time of the event (s) t_pre : float Time kept before the event (s) t_post : float Time kept after the event (s) shifttime : bool If True, the spike times are shifted so that t=0 at the time of the event, if False, the spike times are not changed
Returns:	spiketrainsel : Neo SpikeTrain Selected SpikeTrain around the event spiketimesel : array Time of the selected spikes, around the event

neo_utils.spiketraintimerejection(spiketrain, t_start, t_stop)¶

Create a new spiketrain removing the spikes occuring between t_start and t_stop

Parameters:	spiketrain : Neo SpikeTrain Input Neo SpikeTrain t_start : float Starting time of rejection (s) t_stop : float Ending time of rejection (s)
Returns:	spiketrainsel : Neo SpikeTrain Output Neo SpikeTrain spiketimesel : array Time of the selected spikes (all spikes minus the rejected ones) spikerejected_ind : array Indices of the rejected spikes

neo_utils.spiketraintimesel(spiketrain, t_start, t_stop)¶

Time selection on a Neo spiketrain. Select the spikes occuring between t_start and t_stop.

Parameters:	spiketrain : Neo SpikeTrain Input Neo SpikeTrain t_start : float Starting time of selection (s) t_stop : float Ending time of selection (s)
Returns:	spiketrainsel : Neo SpikeTrain Output Neo SpikeTrain containing only the selected spikes spiketimesel : array Time of the selected spikes
