Functions to quantify multivariate synchrony
Project description
Important announcement - There is an issue with the calculation of determinism in version 0.0.3 and below; update to version 0.0.4 or above to receive the fix (pip install --upgrade multiSyncPy). Thanks to @mrrezaie for spotting the issue. Please inform anyone you know who might be using multiSyncPy.
multiSyncPy
multiSyncPy is a Python package for quantifying multivariate synchrony. Our package supports the burgeoning field of research into synchrony, making accessible a set of methods for studying group-level rather than dyadic constructs of synchrony and/or coordination. We offer a range of metrics for estimating mulivariate synchrony based on a collection of those used in recent literature.
The main methods of this package are functions to calculate:
- symbolic entropy,
- multidimensional recurrence quantification,
- coherence (and a related 'sum-normalized CSD' metric),
- the cluster-phase 'Rho' metric
- the synchronization coefficient metric, and
- a statistical test based on the Kuramoto order parameter
We also include functions for two surrogation techniques to compare the observed coordination dynamics with chance levels.
