Perievent#
The perievent module allows to re-center time series and timestamps data around a particular event as well as computing events (spikes) trigger average.

import pynapple as nap

Peri-Event Time Histogram (PETH)#
stim = nap.Tsd(
t=np.sort(np.random.uniform(0, 1000, 50)),
d=np.random.rand(50), time_units="s"
)
ts1 = nap.Ts(t=np.sort(np.random.uniform(0, 1000, 2000)), time_units="s")
The function compute_perievent
align timestamps to a particular set of timestamps.
peth = nap.compute_perievent(
data=ts1,
tref=stim,
minmax=(-0.1, 0.2),
time_unit="s")

The returned object is a TsGroup
. The column ref_times
is a
metadata column that indicates the center timestamps.
Raster plot#
It is then easy to create a raster plot around the times of the
stimulation event by calling the to_tsd
function of pynapple
to “flatten” the TsGroup peth
.
plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
plt.subplot(211)
plt.plot(np.sum(peth.count(0.01), 1), linewidth=3, color="red")
plt.xlim(-0.1, 0.2)
plt.ylabel("Count")
plt.axvline(0.0)
plt.subplot(212)
plt.plot(peth.to_tsd(), "|", markersize=20, color="red", mew=4)
plt.xlabel("Time from stim (s)")
plt.ylabel("Stimulus")
plt.xlim(-0.1, 0.2)
plt.axvline(0.0)

The same function can be applied to a group of neurons.
In this case, it returns a dict of TsGroup
Event trigger average#
The function compute_event_trigger_average
compute the average feature around a particular event time.

align a time series of any dimensions around events.
