About this paper
Christophe Pouzat, Georgios Is. Detorakis
SPySort implements a spike-sorting procedure for separating overlapping spikes in extracellular recordings. It learns templates, estimates timing offsets with a local Taylor approximation and regression, aligns waveforms, then subtracts matches and searches residuals for further spikes. In a locust example, iteration separates an illustrated overlap into two components; the paper does not establish accuracy against ground truth or competing sorters.
