Kernel died when using herdingspikes in SpikeInterface #68

Closed betty6you closed 1 year ago

betty6you commented 2 years ago

Hi, I have installed herdingspikes to run spike sorting in SpikeInterface, but it will cause the kernel died everytime I do it.

What will be the problem in my code? Here is the code: https://github.com/betty6you/EDFRecordingExtractor/blob/main/EDF_extractor_test_1.ipynb

Hope you can help me solve it.

Many thanks.

Hi, sorry for the long delay. It's difficult to say why this fails, but I suspect it has to do with the probe geometry - Herding Spikes uses multiple channels to estimate spike locations, and in your case channels seem separated by 100um (?). So the localisation method has no data to work with and will thus fail (it's not expected though that the kernel dies). I think HS is not right for your data, here other sorters such as MountainSort may perform much better.

Thanks for your reply. I will try other method then.
