Note: YASS is in an early stage of development. Although it is stable, it has only been tested with the data in our lab, but we are working to make it more flexible. Feel free to send feedback through Gitter. Expect a lot of API changes in the near future.

Installing the last stable version:

pip install yass-algorithm

If you are feeling adventurous, you can install from the master branch:

pip install git+git://github.com/paninski-lab/yass@master

Quick example of YASS using a sample of the neuropixel data from Nick Steinmetz:

# install last stable version
pip install yass-algorithm

# clone repo to get the sample data
git clone https://github.com/paninski-lab/yass

# move to the examples folder and run yass in the sample data
cd yass/examples
yass sort config_sample.yaml

# see the spike train
cat data/spike_train.csv

You can also use YASS in Python scripts. See the documentation for details.
