9 Pkg-Description: framework for closed-loop neurophysiological experiments
10 RELACS is designed as an framework for closed-loop experiments that
11 may considerably speed up this traditional approach and in addition
12 offers novel experimental possibilities. In a closed-loop experiment
13 a stimulus is presented, the resulting response is immediately
14 analyzed, and properties of the next stimulus (e.g. mean
15 intensity) are adjusted as needed.
17 RELACS comes with an extensive set of data-analysis functions. The
18 functions are implemented in C++ to allow fast and memory efficient
19 data-analysis as it is required for closed-loop experiments:
20 - Basic statistics (e.g. mean, standard deviation)
21 - Spectral analysis: power spectrum, transfer function, coherence
22 - Linear and nonlinear fits (Levenberg-Marquardt and Simplex)
24 - Histograms, interpolation
25 - Stimulus generation: pulse, saw tooth, band-pass filtered white
26 noise, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck noise
27 - Firing rates: mean, binned, convolved with kernels (e.g. rectangle,
29 - Interspike intervals: histogram, CV, serial correlation, etc.
30 - Spike timing precision: vector strength, reliability, correlation,
33 RELACS plugin infrastructure allows to adapt it to specific hardware
34 drivers and they allow you to implement research protocols, filters,
