neurodsp.sim.cycles.sim_skewed_gaussian_cycle

neurodsp.sim.cycles.sim_skewed_gaussian_cycle(n_seconds, fs, center, std, alpha, height=1)

Simulate a cycle of a skewed gaussian.

Parameters

n_secondsfloat

Length of cycle window in seconds.

fsfloat

Sampling frequency of the cycle simulation.

centerfloat

The center of the skewed gaussian.

stdfloat

Standard deviation of the gaussian kernel, in seconds.

alphafloat

Magnitude and direction of the skew.

heightfloat, optional, default: 1.

Maximum value of the cycle.

Returns

cycle1d array

Output values for skewed gaussian function.

Examples

Simulate a 2 Hz asymmetric sine cycle:

>>> cycle = sim_skewed_gaussian_cycle(n_seconds=0.5, fs=500, center=0.25,
...                                   std=0.25, alpha=2.5, height=1)
