Mountainsort Parameters and Units. #29

Closed baoloc10 closed 6 years ago

baoloc10 commented 6 years ago

Hi,

Is there documentations for each parameters in the mountainsort sorting algorithm? One that have 1 or 2 lines of description of each parameter and their units. For example, what exactly is frequency width and is there a relationship between clip_size and detect-interval?

Similarly, What are does each parameters do (and what are their units) for the curation algorithm? For some reason, when running curation step, it filter out all spike data including what seems to be good spike data. I think it might be because the parameters for the curation algorithm may not match our lab's data.

Please direct me to the documentations.

Also, can I be added to the slack channel for future questions?

Thank you.

At some point we will have parameter docs that are more accessible. For now, you can do mp-spec on the individual processors in the pipeline to get information. (You'll need to read the script and see where the parameters get inserted, and then do mp-spec)

Also, we have a new capability: mp-spec -h [processor name]
