KlustaViewa

KlustaViewa is a graphical interface for the manual stage of spike sorting.

NOTE: this legacy project is superseded by the phy KwikGUI that comes with the KlustaSuite.

Installation

Installing KlustaViewa may be tricky because it relies on very old dependencies.

1. Make sure that you have miniconda installed. You can choose the Python 3.5 64-bit version for your operating system (Linux, Windows, or OS X).
2. Download the environment file:
   • Linux
   • OS X
   • Windows

3. Open a terminal (on Windows, cmd, not Powershell) in the directory where you saved the file and type:

   conda install conda-env=2.4
   conda install conda=3
   conda env create -n klustaviewa -f environment-XXX.yml  # replace `XXX` by your system
   source activate klustaviewa  # omit the `source` on Windows
   conda install numpy=1.8 --yes

4. Done! Now, to use KlustaViewa, you have to first type source activate klustaviewa in a terminal (omit the source on Windows), and then call klustaviewa yourfile.kwik.

Documentation

There is a user guide here but it is quite old, so some instructions refer to a previous version.
