Binary search (bisection method) to find x value that gives y_target

For a function y = func(x, *args, **kwargs), returns x_opt for which func(x_opt, *args, **kwargs) is approximately equal to y_target.

Added in version 0.7.

Parameters:
  • y_target (float) – Target y value

  • func (optional) – The function to call along with its positional and keyword arguments

  • args (optional) – The function to call along with its positional and keyword arguments

  • kwargs (optional) – The function to call along with its positional and keyword arguments

  • x_lo (float, optional) – Lower and upper bounds on x

Returns:

x_opt – The x value such that func(x_opt) $approx$ y_target

Return type:

float

Notes

  • Assumes func is a monotonously increasing function of x.

  • Does not require x_lo and x_hi to have opposite signs as in the conventional bisection method.

pulse2percept.utils.cached(f)[source]

Cached property decorator

Decorator can be added to the property of a class to maintain a cache. This is useful when computing the property is computationall expensive. The property will only be computed on first call, and subsequent calls will refer to the cached result.

Important

When making use of a cached property, the class should also maintain a _cache_active flag set to True or False.

Added in version 0.7.

  • y_true (array-like) – Ground truth (correct) target values.

  • y_pred (array-like) – Estimated target values.

Returns:

z – The R² score

Return type:

class pulse2percept.utils.deprecate_parameter(name, deprecated_version=None, removed_version=None, addendum=None)[source]

Decorator for a deprecated function or method parameter.

The parameter remains accepted but is ignored, and explicit use raises DeprecationWarning. Use rename_parameter when the parameter is only being renamed.

Added in version 0.9.1.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – Deprecated parameter name.

  • deprecated_version (float or str) – Version in which it was deprecated.

  • removed_version (float or str) – Version in which it will be removed.

  • addendum (str, optional) – Additional warning text.

class pulse2percept.utils.deprecated(alt_func=None, deprecated_version=None, removed_version=None, extra_msg=None)[source]

Decorator to mark deprecated functions and classes with a warning.

Parameters:
  • alt_func (str) – If given, tell user what function to use instead.

  • removed_version (float or str) – The package version in which the deprecated function/class will be removed.

  • extra_msg (str, optional) –

    Appended to the warning and to the docstring. Say here what a caller has to change beyond the name when alt_func is not a drop-in replacement – different defaults, dropped behavior – so that swapping one for the other cannot silently change results.

    Added in version 0.11.0.

class pulse2percept.utils.deprecated_alias(new_name, deprecated_version=None, removed_version=None)[source]

Descriptor that keeps a renamed model parameter usable by its old name.

Use this for parameters stored in get_default_params. For parameters declared in a function signature, use rename_parameter.

Added in version 0.10.0.

pulse2percept.utils.frame_interval(time, fps=None, tol=0.01)[source]

Determine the delay between two frames of an animation

Added in version 0.10.0.

Parameters:
  • time (array_like) – The time points of the animation (in ms)

  • fps (float or None) –

    Frames per second. If None, the interval is inferred from time, which is not supported for a non-homogeneous time axis.

    May be given as a plain number of hertz or as a unitful frequency (e.g. 0.03 * kHz); see pulse2percept.units.

  • tol (float, optional) – Tolerance within which two time steps count as equal

Returns:

interval – The delay between two frames (in ms). A single-frame animation has no time step of its own and falls back on SINGLE_FRAME_INTERVAL.

Return type:

float

exception pulse2percept.utils.FreezeError[source]

Exception class used to raise when trying to add attributes to Frozen Classes of type Frozen do not allow for new attributes to be set outside the constructor.

add_note(object, /)

Exception.add_note(note) – add a note to the exception

name

attribute name

obj

object

with_traceback(object, /)

Exception.with_traceback(tb) – set self.__traceback__ to tb and return self.

class pulse2percept.utils.Frozen[source]

“Frozen” classes (and subclasses) do not allow for new class attributes to be set outside the constructor. On attempting to add a new attribute, the class will raise a FreezeError.

pulse2percept.utils.gamma(n, tau, tsample, tol=0.01)[source]

Returns the impulse response of n cascaded leaky integrators

This function calculates the impulse response of n cascaded leaky integrators with constant of proportionality 1/tau: y = (t/theta).^(n-1).*exp(-t/theta)/(theta*factorial(n-1))

class pulse2percept.utils.HTMLAnimation(fig, func, frames=None, *args, image=None, frame_data=None, frame_index=None, labels=None, title=None, fmt='jpg', intervals=None, **kwargs)[source]

A FuncAnimation with a fast player

Behaves exactly like FuncAnimation (including save and to_html5_video), but renders to HTML through a self-contained JavaScript player instead of Matplotlib’s to_jshtml. Instead of re-rendering the whole figure once per frame, the static parts of the figure are rendered once and all frames are shipped as a single color-mapped sprite sheet.

Added in version 0.10.0.

Parameters:
  • fig – Passed to FuncAnimation

  • func – Passed to FuncAnimation

  • frames – Passed to FuncAnimation

  • *args – Passed to FuncAnimation

  • **kwargs – Passed to FuncAnimation

  • image (matplotlib.image.AxesImage or list thereof) – The image artist(s) updated by func. Their position, colormap, and normalization determine how the frames are drawn

  • frame_data (ndarray or list thereof) – One array per image: either (Y, X, T) scalar data, (Y, X, 3, T) RGB data, or (Y, X, 4, T) RGBA data, matching what func displays

  • frame_index (list of (array_like or None), optional) –

    One entry per image, giving the frame of frame_data that each display frame shows. None (the default, or per image) advances that image one frame at a time. This is what lets a still image or a source sampled at another rate share a clock with the rest of the figure.

    Added in version 0.11.0.

  • labels (list of str or None) – Per-frame titles. If None, the title is left alone

  • title (matplotlib.text.Text, optional) –

    The artist that labels are drawn into. Defaults to the title of the first image’s Axes; pass fig.suptitle('') to label a figure with more than one animated panel.

    Added in version 0.11.0.

  • fmt ({'jpg', 'png'}, optional) – Whether to encode the frames as JPEG or PNG. JPEG is typically an order of magnitude smaller, PNG is lossless

  • intervals (array_like or None, optional) –

    How long each frame stays up (in ms), one value per frame. If None, every frame is shown for interval ms. Frames of unequal duration are what lets an animation follow an irregular time axis.

    Added in version 0.10.0.

Notes

  • Frames are quantized to 256 levels and embedded at most at the size at which they are displayed, exactly like Matplotlib would rasterize them.

  • The per-frame title is drawn by the browser, so it uses DejaVu Sans if available and falls back to the default sans-serif font otherwise.

Changed in version 0.11.0: A figure may animate more than one image.

to_jshtml(fps=None, embed_frames=True, default_mode=None)[source]

Generate an HTML representation of the animation

Parameters:
  • fps (float or None) – Display sampling rate in Hz. If None, show every percept frame using its recorded timing. Otherwise resample onto a regular display clock using zero-order hold. Playback duration is preserved to within one display frame. May also be given as a unitful frequency.

  • embed_frames (bool) – Unused; frames are always embedded.

  • default_mode ({'loop', 'once', 'reflect'} or None) – What the animation should do once it has played through. If None, uses ‘loop’ or ‘once’, depending on repeat.

new_frame_seq()[source]

Return a new sequence of frame information.

new_saved_frame_seq()[source]

Return a new sequence of saved/cached frame information.

pause()[source]

Pause the animation.

resume()[source]

Resume the animation.

save(filename, writer=None, fps=None, dpi=None, codec=None, bitrate=None, extra_args=None, metadata=None, extra_anim=None, savefig_kwargs=None, *, progress_callback=None)[source]

Save the animation as a movie file by drawing every frame.

Parameters:
  • filename (str) – The output filename, e.g., mymovie.mp4.

  • writer (AbstractMovieWriter subclass or str, default: rcParams[“animation.writer”] (default: 'ffmpeg')) –

    The writer used to grab the frames and create the movie file. This can be an instance of an AbstractMovieWriter subclass or a string. The builtin writers are

    str

    class

    ’ffmpeg’

    .FFMpegWriter

    ’ffmpeg_file’

    .FFMpegFileWriter

    ’imagemagick’

    .ImageMagickWriter

    ’imagemagick_file’

    .ImageMagickFileWriter

    ’pillow’

    .PillowWriter

    ’html’

    .HTMLWriter

  • fps (int, optional) – Movie frame rate (per second). If not set, the frame rate from the animation’s frame interval.

  • dpi (float, default: rcParams[“savefig.dpi”] (default: 'figure')) – Controls the dots per inch for the movie frames. Together with the figure’s size in inches, this controls the size of the movie.

  • codec (str, default: rcParams[“animation.codec”] (default: 'h264').) – The video codec to use. Not all codecs are supported by a given MovieWriter.

  • bitrate (int, default: rcParams[“animation.bitrate”] (default: -1)) – The bitrate of the movie, in kilobits per second. Higher values means higher quality movies, but increase the file size. A value of -1 lets the underlying movie encoder select the bitrate.

  • extra_args (list of str or None, optional) – Extra command-line arguments passed to the underlying movie encoder. These arguments are passed last to the encoder, just before the output filename. The default, None, means to use rcParams[“animation.[name-of-encoder]_args”] for the builtin writers.

  • metadata (dict[str, str], default: {}) – Dictionary of keys and values for metadata to include in the output file. Some keys that may be of use include: title, artist, genre, subject, copyright, srcform, comment.

  • extra_anim (list, default: []) – Additional Animation objects that should be included in the saved movie file. These need to be from the same .Figure instance. Also, animation frames will just be simply combined, so there should be a 1:1 correspondence between the frames from the different animations.

  • savefig_kwargs (dict, default: {}) – Keyword arguments passed to each ~.Figure.savefig call used to save the individual frames.

  • progress_callback (function, optional) –

    A callback function that will be called for every frame to notify the saving progress. It must have the signature

    def func(current_frame: int, total_frames: int) -> Any
    

    where current_frame is the current frame number and total_frames is the total number of frames to be saved. total_frames is set to None, if the total number of frames cannot be determined. Return values may exist but are ignored.

    Example code to write the progress to stdout:

    progress_callback = lambda i, n: print(f'Saving frame {i}/{n}')
    

Notes

fps, codec, bitrate, extra_args and metadata are used to construct a .MovieWriter instance and can only be passed if writer is a string. If they are passed as non-None and writer is a .MovieWriter, a RuntimeError will be raised.

to_html5_video(embed_limit=None)[source]

Convert the animation to an HTML5 <video> tag.

This saves the animation as an h264 video, encoded in base64 directly into the HTML5 video tag. This respects rcParams[“animation.writer”] (default: 'ffmpeg') and rcParams[“animation.bitrate”] (default: -1). This also makes use of the interval to control the speed, and uses the repeat parameter to decide whether to loop.

Parameters:

embed_limit (float, optional) – Limit, in MB, of the returned animation. No animation is created if the limit is exceeded. Defaults to rcParams[“animation.embed_limit”] (default: 20.0) = 20.0.

Returns:

An HTML5 video tag with the animation embedded as base64 encoded h264 video. If the embed_limit is exceeded, this returns the string “Video too large to embed.”

Return type:

str

class pulse2percept.utils.Parametrized(**params)[source]

Base class for objects with user-settable parameters.

Parameters are declared by get_default_params(); subclasses may declare their storage units with get_param_units(). Frozen prevents adding new attributes after construction.

Added in version 0.10.0.

abstractmethod get_default_params()[source]

Return a dict of user-settable parameters

get_param_units()[source]

Return storage units for physical parameters.

Subclasses should extend this mapping. Parameters not listed here take plain dimensionless values.

Added in version 0.10.0.

set_params(**params)[source]

Set the parameters of this object

pulse2percept.utils.parse_3d_orient(orient, orient_mode='direction')[source]

Parse the orient parameter Given either a 3D rotation matrix, vector of angles of rotation, or direction vector, this function will calculate and return the all three representations.

Parameters:
  • orient (np.ndarray with shape (3) or (3, 3)) –

    Orientation of the electrode in 3D space. orient can be:

    • A length 3 vector specifying the direction that the thread should extend in (if orient_mode == ‘direction’)

    • A list of 3 angles, (r_x, r_y, r_z), specifying the rotation in degrees (or as angle quantities) about each axis (x rotation performed first). (If orient_mode == ‘angle’)

    • 3D rotation matrix, specifying the direction that the thread should extend in (i.e. a unit vector in the z direction will point in the direction after being rotated by this matrix)

  • orient_mode (str) – If ‘direction’, orient is a vector specifying the direction that the electrode should extend in. If ‘angle’, orient is a vector of 3 angles, (r_x, r_y, r_z), specifying the rotation in degrees about each axis (starting with x). Does not apply if orient is a 3D rotation matrix.

Returns:

  • rot (np.ndarray with shape (3, 3)) – Rotation matrix

  • angles (np.ndarray with shape (3)) – Angles of rotation (degrees) about each axis (x, y, z). Note that this mapping is not unique. This function will always set the rotation about the x axis to be 0, meaning that the returned coordinates will match spherical coordinates (i.e. r_y is phi and r_z is theta).

  • direction (np.ndarray with shape (3)) – Unit vector specifying the direction of the orientation.

pulse2percept.utils.pol2cart(theta, rho)[source]

Convert polar to Cartesian coordinates

Parameters:
  • theta (scalar or array-like) – The polar coordinates

  • rho (scalar or array-like) – The polar coordinates

Returns:

x, y – The transformed Cartesian coordinates

Return type:

scalar or array-like

class pulse2percept.utils.PrettyPrint[source]

An abstract class that provides a way to prettyprint all class attributes, inspired by scikit-learn.

Classes deriving from PrettyPrint are required to implement a _pprint_params method that returns a dictionary containing all the attributes to prettyprint.

Examples

>>> from pulse2percept.utils import PrettyPrint
>>> class MyClass(PrettyPrint):
...     def __init__(self, a, b):
...         self.a = a
...         self.b = b
...
...     def _pprint_params(self):
...         return {'a': self.a, 'b': self.b}
>>> MyClass(1, 2)
MyClass(a=1, b=2)
pulse2percept.utils.r2_score(y_true, y_pred)[source]

Calculate R² (the coefficient of determination)

The r2_score() function computes the coefficient of determination, usually denoted as R².

The best possible score is 1.0, lower values are worse.

It represents the proportion of variance (of y) that has been explained by the independent variables in the model. It provides an indication of goodness of fit and therefore a measure of how well unseen samples are likely to be predicted by the model.

If \(\hat{y}_i\) is the predicted value of the \(i\)-th sample and \(y_i\) is the corresponding true value for total \(n\) samples, the estimated R² is defined as:

\[R^2(y, \hat{y}) = 1 - \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n} (y_i - \hat{y}_i)^2}{\sum_{i=1}^{n} (y_i - \bar{y})^2}\]

where \(\bar{y} = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} y_i\) and \(\sum_{i=1}^{n} (y_i - \hat{y}_i)^2 = \sum_{i=1}^{n} \epsilon_i^2\).

Note that r2_score() calculates unadjusted R² without correcting for bias in sample variance of y.

Added in version 0.7.

Parameters:
  • y_true (array-like) – Ground truth (correct) target values.

  • y_pred (array-like) – Estimated target values.

Returns:

z – The R² score

Return type:

float

Notes

  • If the ground-truth data has zero variance, R² will be zero.

  • This is not a symmetric function

pulse2percept.utils.rename_deprecated_params(obj_name, params, specs)[source]

Rewrite renamed model parameters that were supplied by their old name

The counterpart of warn_deprecated_params() for parameters that were renamed rather than retired: the value is kept, but moves to the new name, and the warning names the replacement.

Handing the caller a rewritten dict, rather than letting the assignment fall through to the deprecated_alias descriptor, keeps the warning to one per parameter and lets it name the model the user actually called.

Added in version 0.10.0.

Parameters:
  • obj_name (str) – Name of the model, as it should appear in the warning.

  • params (dict) – Parameters the caller supplied. Names that were not renamed are left alone, so it is fine to pass all of them.

  • specs (dict) – Maps a renamed parameter’s old name to the deprecated_alias describing it.

Returns:

params – params with every renamed key replaced by its new name. The original dict is returned untouched if none of the keys were renamed.

Return type:

dict

Raises:

TypeError – If both names of the same parameter were supplied. Which one won would otherwise come down to the order they were passed in.

class pulse2percept.utils.rename_parameter(old_name, new_name, deprecated_version=None, removed_version=None)[source]

Returns:

sample – List of randomly chosen elements from the sequence

Return type:

Remove any black border around the image

Added in version 0.7.

Parameters:
  • img (ndarray) – A 2D NumPy array representing a (height, width) grayscale image, or a 3D NumPy array representing a (height, width, channels) RGB image. If an alpha channel is present, the image will first be blended with black.

pulse2percept.utils.warn_deprecated_params(obj_name, supplied, specs, stacklevel=3)[source]

Warn about deprecated model parameters that were supplied by name

pulse2percept models take their parameters as **params, validated against get_default_params rather than declared in a signature, so deprecate_parameter cannot see them. This is the equivalent for that path: hand it the names the caller actually supplied, and it warns for the deprecated ones.

Added in version 0.9.1.

Parameters:
  • obj_name (str) – Name of the model, as it should appear in the warning.

  • supplied (iterable of str) – Parameter names the caller passed explicitly. Names that are not deprecated are skipped, so it is fine to pass all of them.

  • specs (dict) – Maps a deprecated parameter name to the deprecate_parameter describing it, so that signature-level and model-level deprecations word alike.

  • stacklevel (int, optional) – Passed to warnings.warn. Exact attribution is not possible through a chain of super().__init__ calls of varying depth, so the message names the parameter and the model rather than relying on it.
