calculate_network_bursts: Compute network bursts for a list of MEA recordings.

In meaRtools: Micro-Electro Array (MEA) Analysis

Description

For a list of MEA recordings, ususally from the same plate at different time point,This function detects and report network burst features at the well level.

Usage

calculate_network_bursts(s,sigmas, min_electrodes, local_region_min_nae)

Arguments

s	A list of MEA recordings, typically from the same MEA plate at different time point.
sigmas	The window size used to generate network bursts.
min_electrodes	Minimum number of electrodes to call a network burst
local_region_min_nae	Indicates if an adaptive threthold method should be used.

Value

Returns an object containing summary, nb_all, nb_features, result, and nb_features_merged.

summary	brief summary
nb_all	Each well has 3 data frames with nb times, one for each smoothing window
nb_features	a list containing a data-frame for each DIV analyzed
result	for each DIV analyzed, information on the DIV, times of nb for each well and each smoothing window
nb_features_merged	data frame with nb related features averaged across DIVs
