brainpy.encoding.LatencyEncoder#

class brainpy.encoding.LatencyEncoder(min_val, max_val, num_period, method='linear')[source]#

Encode the rate input as the spike train.

The latency encoder will encode x (normalized into [0, 1] according to \(x_{\text{normalize}} = \frac{x-\text{min_val}}{\text{max_val} - \text{min_val}}\)) to spikes whose firing time is \(0 \le t_f \le \text{num_period}-1\). A larger x will cause the earlier firing time.

Parameters

  • min_val (float) – The minimal value in the given data x, used to the data normalization.

  • max_val (float) – The maximum value in the given data x, used to the data normalization.

  • num_period (int) – The periodic firing time step.

  • method (str) –

    How to convert intensity to firing time. Currently, we support linear or log.

    • If method='linear', the firing rate is calculated as \(t_f(x) = (\text{num_period} - 1)(1 - x)\).

    • If method='log', the firing rate is calculated as \(t_f(x) = (\text{num_period} - 1) - ln(\alpha * x + 1)\), where \(\alpha\) satisfies \(t_f(1) = \text{num_period} - 1\).
