Description

In this introductory level tutorial we will introduce participants to analyzing electrophysiological data from a neural network simulation using the tools Neo (https://neuralensemble.org/neo) for representing and handling the data and Elephant (https://python-elephant.org) for performing the actual analysis. We will cover the basic Neo data objects and how to load simulation outcomes into the framework. We then focus the analysis on obtaining and contrasting power spectral density estimates from spike train data using multiple approaches. For the tutorial, participants will be able to execute tutorials on their laptops with minimal installation effort using the EBRAINS Collaboratory.
