Signals From Events

Module name: SignalsFromEvents

Package: CEAMSModules 7.4.0

Version: 3.0.0

Overview

Manage a list of SignalModel from specific events during a recording.

The goal is to extract signals from events (segments : sleep stages or clean segments for analysis). Could also be spindles.

Create a new list of SignalModel based on the events (create = True), otherwise select items from the list of SignalModel based on the events (create = False).

Inputs

Input

Format

Default

Description

signals

a list of SignalModel

Each item of the list is a SignalModel object as described below:
signal.samples : The actual signal data as numpy list
signal.sample_rate : the sampling rate of the signal
signal.channel : current channel label
signal.start_time : The start time of the signal in sec
signal.end_time : The end time of the signal in sec
(for more info : look into common/SignalModel)

events

pandas DataFrame

df of events with field
‘group’: Group of events this event is part of (String)
‘name’: Name of the event (String)
‘start_sec’: Starting time of the event in sec (Float)
‘duration_sec’: Duration of the event in sec (Float)
‘channels’ : Channel where the event occures (String)
(For now events are expected to be on all channels)

events_groups

String

String of the desired event groups to take in account. Separated by a
comma. ex)’group_1’ or ex)’group_1,group2,group3’

events_names

String

String of the desired events to take in account. Separated by a
comma. ex)’stage_2’ or ex)’stage_1,stage2,stage3’

create

bool

True

True to create a new list of SignalModel based on the events.
False to select items from the list of SignalModel based on the events.

Outputs

Description

signals_from_events

a list of SignalModel

Each item is a SignalModel based on one item from events.
(For now events are expected to be on all channels)

epochs_to_process

pandas DataFrame

df of events with field
‘group’: Group of events this event is part of (String)
‘name’: Name of the event (String)
‘start_sec’: Starting time of the event in sec (Float)
‘duration_sec’: Duration of the event in sec (Float)
‘channels’ : Channel where the event occures (String)

Usage in a process

  1. Open Dev Tools -> New process in Snooz.

  2. In the Module Library, find Signals From Events under the Events Utilities category.

  3. Drag the module onto the process canvas.

  4. Connect the required inputs from upstream modules (or set values in the Settings tab).

  5. Connect outputs to downstream modules as needed.

  6. Double-click the module to configure parameters in the Settings tab.

  7. Run the process and inspect results in the Results tab.
