compute_AP_array¶

data_base.db_initializers.prepare_ANN_batches.compute_AP_array(st, min_time, max_time, fillna=1000, step=1)¶

One-hot encode spike times to a binned time vector.

Given a collection of spike times of a single trial, this method returns an array of length (max\_time - min\_time)//step, where a boolean represents if a spike is found in this interval.

Parameters:¶

• st (array) – Array of spike times

• min_time (float/int) – Min time in ms

• max_time (float/int) – Max time in ms

• step (int, optional) – Size of timesteps to consider. Defaults to 1 ms

Returns:¶

Array where each element is a boolean representing if an AP was present during this timestep.

Return type:¶

array
