Breaking changes

  • For current source density measures electrode coordinates can no longer be supplied via a RecordingChannelGroup object as it is no longer supported in Neo v0.10.0 (#447)

New functionality and features

  • Redesigned elephant.spike_train_generation module using classes (old API is retained for compatibility) (#416)
  • Added function to calculate the multitaper power spectral density estimate in elephant.spectral (#417)
  • Added a boundary correction for the firing rate estimator elephant.statistics.instantaneous_rate with Gaussian kernels (#414)
  • Function to discretise spiketimes for a given spiketrain in elephant.conversion (#454)
  • Support for the new SpikeTrainList object of Neo (#447)

Bug fixes

  • Issue with unit scaling in BinnedSpikeTrain (#425)
  • Changed BinnedSpikeTrain to support quantities<0.12.4 (#418)
  • Fix FloatingPointError in ICSD (#421)
  • t_start information was lost while transposing LFP for current_source_density module (#432)
  • Fix neo_tools unit tests to work with Neo 0.10.0+ (#446)
  • Fixed various issues with consistency of bin boundaries of instantaneous rates (#453)

Documentation

  • Update tutorials ASSET and UE tutorial and datasets to use nixio >=1.5.0 (#441)
  • Updated spade tutorial to work with viziphant 0.2.0 (#444)
  • Fixed figures in the Granger causality tutorial (#434)
  • Add DOIs to documentation (#456)
  • Fixed random seed selection in some tutorials (#430)

Optimizations

  • Highly optimized run-time of the SPADE analysis (#419)
  • More efficient storage of spike complexities by the elephant.statistics.Complexity class (#412)
  • Updated elephant.signal_processing.zscore function for in-place operations (#440)

Other changes

  • Continuous Integration (CI) was moved to github actions (#451)
  • Change test framework from Nose to pytest (#413)
  • Added DOI with zenodo (#445)
  • Versioning for associated elephant-data repository for example datasets introduced (#463)

Selected dependency changes

  • nixio >= 1.5.0
  • neo >= 0.10.0
  • python >= 3.7
