BinConverter - GUI that will allow the user to convert the raw (.bin) files from Axona's Tint software to their normal Tint format

Project description

BinConverter

This is a GUI developed to aid those individuals using Axona' LLC's Tint software for spike sorting. The GUI will take the raw (.bin) files and convert them to the Tint format (.eeg, .egf, .N, etc) retroactively. This can be done using DacqUSB, however this GUI will allow you to batch convert, as well as it will allow you to retroactively choose a threshold. This is beneficial as depending on the timeframe of your recording, the signal can deviate and the threshold you set in the beginning of the recording might no longer be suitable. As of now the threshold is a multiple (chosen by the user) of the standard deviation of the baseline signal.

Prerequisites

The dependencies are written in the requirements.txt file, however some are listed below:

  1. PyQt4 - This is the framework of the GUI so it and its dependents must be installed, I believe a requirement for this is Python 3.4+
  2. Numpy
  3. SciPy
  4. PeakUtils
  5. Matplotlib

Note: it has been tested on Windows, and should be compatible on other OS', however they have not been tested
