SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

NeuroKit2 streamlines the processing of physiological time-series (biosignals) into cleaned signals and actionable metrics, so researchers can analyze cardiovascular, neural, autonomic, respiratory, muscular, and eye-movement data without hand-built pipelines.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end biosignal workflows: Clean, detect events/peaks, and compute summaries for ECG, PPG, HRV, EEG, EDA, RSP, EMG, and EOG.
  • Cardiac autonomic analysis: Perform comprehensive HRV across time, frequency, and nonlinear domains, including RSA via ECG and respiratory coupling.
  • Neural and complexity metrics: Extract EEG frequency power, microstates, and complexity/entropy/fractal measures for psychophysiology and neuroscience studies.
  • Event- and interval-related analysis: Create epochs around stimuli/events and run stimulus-locked or resting/continuous analyses with consistent metrics.
  • Multi-modal integration: Process multiple signals together and compute cross-signal features (e.g., RSA, ECG-derived respiration, cardio-EDA coupling).

Quick Start

Use the neurokit2 skill to process the provided physiological recordings and compute cleaned signals plus HRV/EDA/respiratory/EEG metrics as appropriate.

FAQPage Schema
How do I compute HRV metrics from raw ECG signals?

Computing HRV metrics from raw ECG signals involves cleaning the data, detecting R-peaks, and calculating time, frequency, and nonlinear domain features. This skill processes cardiovascular recordings end-to-end to produce actionable HRV summaries without hand-built pipelines.

What is the best way to analyze EDA and ECG data together for event-related research?

Analyzing EDA and ECG data together for event-related research requires creating stimulus-locked epochs and computing cross-signal features. This skill supports multi-modal integration to calculate metrics like cardio-EDA coupling from simultaneous physiological recordings.

Can I extract EEG frequency power and microstates from raw biosignal time-series?

Yes, you can extract EEG frequency power and microstates from raw time-series data. The skill applies filtering and decomposition to neural signals, yielding complexity and entropy measures suitable for psychophysiology and neuroscience studies.

Does this biosignal processing approach handle respiratory and muscular signals?

Yes, this biosignal processing approach handles respiratory (RSP) and muscular (EMG) signals. It cleans raw time-series data, detects relevant events or peaks, and computes domain-specific summaries alongside cardiovascular, neural, autonomic, and ocular data.

How do I epoch physiological data around specific stimuli for analysis?

To epoch physiological data around specific stimuli, you apply event-locked segmentation to your raw time-series. This skill creates intervals around events to run stimulus-locked or resting analyses while computing consistent metrics across all epochs.

What limitations exist when computing complexity and entropy measures from physiological signals?

Limitations when computing complexity and entropy measures depend on raw signal quality and appropriate peak detection. While this skill applies advanced decomposition and filtering, accurate nonlinear metrics require clean time-series inputs free from heavy artifacts.
