********* Tutorials ********* These tutorials provide narrative explanations, sample code, and expected output for some of the neurophysiological analyses in Elephant. You can browse the tutorials or launch them in mybinder to change and interact with the code. Introductory ------------ * Statistics of spike trains. Covers ``statistics`` module with an introduction to `Neo `_ input-output data types like `SpikeTrain`, `AnalogSignal`, etc. :doc:`View the notebook <../tutorials/statistics>` or run interactively: .. image:: https://mybinder.org/badge.svg :target: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/NeuralEnsemble/elephant/master?filepath=doc/tutorials/statistics.ipynb Advanced -------- * Unitary Event Analysis. The analysis detects coordinated spiking activity that occurs significantly more often than predicted by the firing rates of neurons alone. It's superior to simple statistics. :doc:`View the notebook <../tutorials/unitary_event_analysis>` or run interactively: .. image:: https://mybinder.org/badge.svg :target: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/NeuralEnsemble/elephant/master?filepath=doc/tutorials/unitary_event_analysis.ipynb * Gaussian Process Factor Analysis (GPFA). GPFA is a dimensionality reduction method for neural trajectory visualization of parallel spike trains. :doc:`View the notebook <../tutorials/gpfa>` or run interactively: .. image:: https://mybinder.org/badge.svg :target: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/NeuralEnsemble/elephant/master?filepath=doc/tutorials/gpfa.ipynb * Analysis of Sequences of Synchronous EvenTs (ASSET) :doc:`View the notebook <../tutorials/asset>` or run interactively: .. image:: https://mybinder.org/badge.svg :target: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/NeuralEnsemble/elephant/master?filepath=doc/tutorials/asset.ipynb * Granger causality :doc:`View the notebook <../tutorials/granger_causality>` or run interactively: .. image:: https://mybinder.org/badge.svg :target: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/NeuralEnsemble/elephant/master?filepath=doc/tutorials/granger_causality.ipynb Additional ---------- * Parallel ``elephant.parallel`` module provides a simple interface to parallelize multiple calls to any user-specified function. :doc:`View the notebook <../tutorials/parallel>` or run interactively: .. image:: https://mybinder.org/badge.svg :target: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/NeuralEnsemble/elephant/master?filepath=doc/tutorials/parallel.ipynb ..
