Correlogram view in development version of phy - unexpected behavior

[Shavika Rastogi]

Hello everyone !

I am new to spike sorting and I am using klustakwik to do spike sorting on my datasets. I am using latest development version of phy for visualisation. As per my knowledge, refractory period should be clearly visible in the autocorrelogram and there should not be any spike in this period. I have a number of datasets and for each dataset, I can observe peak in the middle in autocorrelogram as shown in the attached figure.

Could anyone explain me the reason behind this?  Or is it because development version of phy interprets correlogram in different way?

 

Hoping for an early response.

With Warm Regards
