Analyzing neural data can be a troublesome, trial and error prone, and beginner unfriendly process. py_neuromodulation allows using a simple interface for extraction of established neurophysiological features and includes commonly applied pre -and postprocessing methods.
Only time series data with a corresponding sampling frequency are required for feature extraction.
The output will be a pandas.DataFrame including different time-resolved computed features. Internally a stream get's initialized, which resembles an online data-stream that can in theory also be be used with a hardware acquisition system.
The following features are currently included:
- oscillatory: fft, stft or bandpass filtered band power
- temporal waveform shape
- fooof
- mne_connectivity estimates
- Hjorth parameter
- non-linear dynamical estimates
- various burst features
- line length
- and more...
Find here the preprint of py_neuromodulation called "Invasive neurophysiology and whole brain connectomics for neural decoding in patients with brain implants" [1].
The original intention for writing this toolbox was movement decoding from invasive brain signals [2]. The application however could be any neural decoding problem. py_neuromodulation offers wrappers around common practice machine learning methods for efficient analysis.
Find the documentation here neuromodulation.github.io/py_neuromodulation/ for example usage and parametrization.
py_neuromodulation requires at least python 3.10. For installation you can use pip:
pip install py-neuromodulation
Alternatively you can also clone the pacakge and install it using uv:
uv python install 3.10 uv venv . .venv/bin/activate uv sync
Then py_neuromodulation can be imported via:
import py_neuromodulation as nm
import py_neuromodulation as nm
import numpy as np
NUM_CHANNELS = 5
NUM_DATA = 10000
sfreq = 1000 # Hz
sampling_rate_features_hz = 3 # Hz
data = np.random.random([NUM_CHANNELS, NUM_DATA])
stream = nm.Stream(sfreq=sfreq, data=data, sampling_rate_features_hz=sampling_rate_features_hz)
features = stream.run()Check the Usage and First examples for further introduction.
