Generate VI signal¶
Spike trains¶
‘Network’ definition.
N_in = 30
p_connected = 0.5
N_connected = round(N_in * p_connected)
N_unconnected = N_in - N_connected

Have all incoming neurons spike with the same mean frequency, for now.
f_spike = 20 * Hz;
gen_st = v.generate_Poisson_spike_train
v.fix_rng_seed()
%%time
spike_trains_connected = [gen_st(tg, f_spike) for _ in range(N_connected)]
spike_trains_unconnected = [gen_st(tg, f_spike) for _ in range(N_unconnected)];
Wall time: 1.95 s
all_spike_trains = spike_trains_connected + spike_trains_unconnected;
Inspect a time excerpt..
time_slice = 1 * minute + np.array([0, 1]) * second
slice_indices = np.round(time_slice / tg.dt).astype(int)
i_slice = slice(*slice_indices)
t_slice = tg.t[i_slice]

..of one presynaptic neuron:
def plot_spike_train_excerpt(spike_train):
return v.spike_train.plot(t_slice, spike_train[i_slice])
plot_spike_train_excerpt(all_spike_trains[0]);
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_18_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_18_0.png)
All connected presynaptic neurons:
all_incoming_spikes = sum(spike_trains_connected)
v.spike_train.plot(t_slice, all_incoming_spikes[i_slice]);
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_20_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_20_0.png)
Note that some time bins contain more than one spike.
(The simulator handles this, by increasing synaptic conductance by an integer multiple of Δg_syn
in that timebin).
Synaptic conductance¶
See the previous notebook /notebooks/2020-07-27__Synaptic_conductances for some more explanation.
Δg_syn = 0.8 * nS
τ_syn = 7 * ms;
g_syn = v.calc_synaptic_conductance(
tg, all_incoming_spikes, Δg_syn, τ_syn)
plt.plot(t_slice, g_syn[i_slice] / nS);

Imaging model¶
As in /notebooks/2020-07-06__Single_neuron_sim.
Vm_noisy = v.add_VI_noise(sim.V_m, params)
plt.plot(t_slice, Vm_noisy[i_slice] / mV);
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_32_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_32_0.png)
Shuffle one spike train¶
We choose one spike train / incoming neuron, and will test the hypothesis that this neuron is connected to the simulated neuron.
H0 = neuron of incoming spike train is not connected to simulated neuron
H1 = they are connected
spike_train = all_spike_trains[0];
We will shuffle the real spike train \(S\) times to generate \(S\) ‘fake’ spike trains, which have the same number of spikes but at random times.
S = 100;
%%time
shuffled_spike_trains = []
for i in range(S):
x = spike_train.copy()
np.random.shuffle(x) # in-place
shuffled_spike_trains.append(x)
Wall time: 23.4 s
Inspect a few shuffled spike trains.
for i in range(3):
plot_spike_train_excerpt(shuffled_spike_trains[i]);
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_40_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_40_0.png)
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_40_1.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_40_1.png)
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_40_2.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_40_2.png)
Real spike train again:
plot_spike_train_excerpt(spike_train);
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_42_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_42_0.png)
Same number of spikes in all:
def num_spikes(spike_train):
spike_indices = v.get_spike_indices(spike_train)
return len(spike_indices)
for i in range(3):
print(num_spikes(shuffled_spike_trains[i]))
12020
12020
12020
num_spikes(spike_train)
12020
Spiking frequency of the chosen presynaptic neuron:
num_spikes(spike_train) / tg.T / Hz
20.03
That’s to spec.
Spike-triggered windowing & averaging¶
For each spike train (original and shuffleds), we extract spike-triggered windows from the simulated voltage imaging signal, and average those windows.
window_length = 100 * ms;
window_tg = v.TimeGrid(window_length, tg.dt);
def calc_STA(spike_train):
return v.calculate_STA(Vm_noisy, spike_train, tg, window_tg)
original_STA = calc_STA(spike_train);
%%time
shuffled_STAs = []
for train in shuffled_spike_trains:
shuffled_STAs.append(calc_STA(train))
Wall time: 9.14 s
Plot STA’s of the original spike train (top left) and three shuffled spike trains:
fig, axes = plt.subplots(ncols=2, nrows=2, sharey=True)
original_ax = axes.flat[0]
v.plot_STA(original_STA, window_tg, original_ax)
ylabel = original_ax.yaxis.get_label()
ylabel.set_horizontalalignment('right')
for i in range(3):
ax = axes.flat[i+1]
v.plot_STA(shuffled_STAs[i], window_tg, ax)
ax.set(ylabel=None)
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_58_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_58_0.png)
Peak height of STA¶
shuffled_STA_peak_heights = []
for STA in shuffled_STAs:
shuffled_STA_peak_heights.append(np.max(STA))
shuffled_STA_peak_heights = np.array(shuffled_STA_peak_heights);
# Convert list to numpy array for division or comparison with scalars later.
original_STA_peak_height = np.max(original_STA);
Let’s look at the distribution of peak heights.
import seaborn as sns # Extension of matplotlib for statistical data viz.
Shuffled spike trains only:
dist_ax = sns.distplot(shuffled_STA_peak_heights / mV, kde=False, rug=True, bins=12)
# KDE=False means that the y-axis labels give count in each bin. (Otherwise, it's a density).
dist_ax.set_xlabel("STA peak height (mV)");
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_65_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_65_0.png)
Add original spike train:
dist_ax.axvline(original_STA_peak_height / mV, color="C1")
dist_ax.figure
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_67_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_67_0.png)
p-value¶
As proportion¶
If we define p-value as proportion of shuffled STA peak heights higher than the original, we get, of course:
p_proportion = np.sum(shuffled_STA_peak_heights > original_STA_peak_height) / S
0.0
(As integral of KDE)¶
We can fit a distribution to the H0 peak heights to get another type of p-value.
We choose a kernel-density estimate (KDE), i.e. a non-paramteric distribution (except hyperparams). (See here for code explanation: https://jakevdp.github.io/PythonDataScienceHandbook/05.13-kernel-density-estimation.html#Kernel-Density-Estimation-in-Practice)
from sklearn.neighbors import KernelDensity
kde = KernelDensity(kernel='gaussian', bandwidth=0.1 * mV)
kde.fit(shuffled_STA_peak_heights[:, np.newaxis]) # `fit` expects 2D array.
def plot_KDE(xrange): # xrange given in mV
x = np.linspace(*np.array(xrange) * mV, 1000)[:, np.newaxis]
y = np.exp(kde.score_samples(x)); # `score_samples` returns log of prob.
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x / mV, y)
ax.axvline(original_STA_peak_height / mV, color="C1")
return fig, ax
plot_KDE(dist_ax.get_xlim());
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_75_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_75_0.png)
plot_KDE((-45.6, -45.5));
![../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_76_0.png](../_images/2020-11-27__permutation_test_76_0.png)
def pdf(x):
return np.exp(kde.score_samples([[x]])).item()
pdf(original_STA_peak_height)
6.209E-68
p-value is area under the curve to the right of original spike train peak STA height.
from scipy.integrate import quad
Docs: https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.integrate.quad.html
result, error = quad(pdf, a=original_STA_peak_height, b=0 * mV)
(result, error)
(1.099E-75, 2.186E-75)
The absolute error is larger than the estimated integral. The result is thus not reliable.
Anyway, from the plots it’s clear that this p-value is very small.
Next steps: describe influence of N_in
, p_connected
, SNR
, … on p-value.
