*\"Current Source Density analysis (CSD) is a class of methods of analysis of
extracellular electric potentials recorded at multiple sites leading to
estimates of current sources generating the measured potentials. It is usually
applied to low-frequency part of the potential (called the Local Field
Potential, LFP) and to simultaneous recordings or to recordings taken with
fixed time reference to the onset of specific stimulus (Evoked Potentials).\"*
(Definition by Prof.Daniel K. Wójcik for Encyclopedia of Computational
Neuroscience.)
CSD is also called as Source Localization or Source Imaging in the EEG circles.
Here are CSD methods for different types of electrode configurations.
- 1D -laminar probe like electrodes.
- 2D -Microelectrode Array like
- 3D -UtahArray or multiple laminar probes.
The following methods have been implemented so far
- 1D: StandardCSD, DeltaiCSD, SplineiCSD, StepiCSD, KCSD1D
- 2D: KCSD2D, MoIKCSD (Saline layer on top of slice)
- 3D: KCSD3D
Each listed method has certain advantages. The KCSD methods, for instance, can
handle broken or irregular electrode configurations electrode.

"""
Function call to compute the current source density (CSD) from
extracellular potential recordings (local field potentials - LFP) using
laminar electrodes or multi-contact electrodes with 2D or 3D geometries.
Parameters
----------
lfp : :class:`neo.core.AnalogSignal`
Positions of electrodes can be added as an array annotation
coordinates : array-like Quantity or string
Specifies the corresponding spatial coordinates of the electrodes.
Coordinates can be directly supplied by a NxM array-like Quantity
with dimension of space, where M is the number of signals in 'lfp',
and N is equal to the dimensionality of the method.
Alternatively, if coordinates is a string, the function will fetch the
coordinates, supplied in the same format, as annotation of 'lfp' by
that name.
Default: 'coordinates'
method : string
Pick a method corresponding to the setup, in this implementation
For Laminar probe style (1D), use 'KCSD1D' or 'StandardCSD',
or 'DeltaiCSD' or 'StepiCSD' or 'SplineiCSD'
For MEA probe style (2D), use 'KCSD2D', or 'MoIKCSD'
For array of laminar probes (3D), use 'KCSD3D'
Defaults to None
process_estimate : bool
In the py_iCSD_toolbox this corresponds to the filter_csd -
the parameters are passed as kwargs here ie., f_type and f_order
In the kcsd methods this corresponds to cross_validate -
the parameters are passed as kwargs here ie., lambdas and Rs
Defaults to True
kwargs : parameters to each method
The parameters corresponding to the method chosen
See the documentation of the individual method
Default is {} - picks the best parameters,
