Kilosort 4 - Algorithm missing fast-spiking units/narrow shaped units #675
Comments
Hi, sorry for the slow response. There is no underlying reason why Kilosort would not be able to detect fast spiking neurons. The universal templates are actually obtained from your own data by default ("templates_from_data = True"). If the fast-spiking neurons have threshold crossings then they will be identified. You can also try templates_from_data = False, which will use predefined templates and then you can be sure there is a fast-spiking template in there. It's also possible that your fast spiking units are just a little too noisy to be identified by Kilosort. You can try other algorithms, but in our experiments in the paper we find that Kilosort is typically much better than other algorithms especially at low amplitudes. |
Another suggestion, I didn't notice before: it looks like you've modified a lot of parameters, some of them in ways that are really not intended. For example, |
I think it's because you changed |
Describe the issue:
Similar to a previous problem on Kilosort 3.0 (Issue #395 ), Kilosort 4.0 is consistently missing the yellow (Plexon Offline Sorter's GUI) fast-spiking unit even after I've adjusted the parameters a few times.
Kilosort 4.0 is able to detect the green unit every time, which is the only one it finds for channel 6.
What parameters would you recommend I change to detect the yellow unit?
