Elephant 0.2.0 release notes ========================== September 22nd 2015
Welcome to the 0.2.0 release of Elephant!
- Added covariance function covariance() in the spike_train_correlation module
- Added complexity pdf complexity_pdf() in the statistics module
- Added spike train extraction from analog signals via threshold detection the in spike_train_generation module
- Added coherence() function for analog signals in the spectral module
- Added Cumulant Based Inference for higher-order of Correlation (CuBIC) in the cubic module for correlation analysis of parallel recorded spike trains
- Optimized kernel bandwidth in rate_estimation function: Calculates the optimized kernel width when the paramter kernel width is specified as auto
- Optimized creation of sparse matrices: The creation speed of the sparse matrix inside the BinnedSpikeTrain class is optimized
- Added Izhikevich neuron simulator in the make_spike_extraction_test_data module
- Minor improvements to the test and continous integration infrastructure
