Numerical python functions written for compatability with MATLAB
commands with the same names.

MATLAB compatible functions
-------------------------------

:func:`cohere`
  Coherence (normalized cross spectral density)

:func:`csd`
  Cross spectral density uing Welch's average periodogram

:func:`detrend`
  Remove the mean or best fit line from an array

:func:`find`
  Return the indices where some condition is true;
         numpy.nonzero is similar but more general.

:func:`griddata`
  interpolate irregularly distributed data to a
             regular grid.

:func:`prctile`
  find the percentiles of a sequence

:func:`prepca`
  Principal Component Analysis

:func:`psd`
  Power spectral density uing Welch's average periodogram

:func:`rk4`
  A 4th order runge kutta integrator for 1D or ND systems

:func:`specgram`
  Spectrogram (power spectral density over segments of time)

Miscellaneous functions
-------------------------

Functions that don't exist in MATLAB, but are useful anyway:

:meth:`cohere_pairs`
    Coherence over all pairs.  This is not a MATLAB function, but we
    compute coherence a lot in my lab, and we compute it for a lot of
    pairs.  This function is optimized to do this efficiently by
    caching the direct FFTs.

:meth:`rk4`
    A 4th order Runge-Kutta ODE integrator in case you ever find
    yourself stranded without scipy (and the far superior
    scipy.integrate tools)

:meth:`contiguous_regions`
    return the indices of the regions spanned by some logical mask

:meth:`cross_from_below`
    return the indices where a 1D array crosses a threshold from below

:meth:`cross_from_above`
    return the indices where a 1D array crosses a threshold from above


record array helper functions
-------------------------------

A collection of helper methods for numpyrecord arrays

.. _htmlonly:

    See :ref:`misc-examples-index`

:meth:`rec2txt`
    pretty print a record array

:meth:`rec2csv`
    store record array in CSV file

:meth:`csv2rec`
    import record array from CSV file with type inspection

:meth:`rec_append_fields`
    adds  field(s)/array(s) to record array

:meth:`rec_drop_fields`
    drop fields from record array

:meth:`rec_join`
    join two record arrays on sequence of fields

:meth:`recs_join`
    a simple join of multiple recarrays using a single column as a key

:meth:`rec_groupby`
    summarize data by groups (similar to SQL GROUP BY)

:meth:`rec_summarize`
    helper code to filter rec array fields into new fields

For the rec viewer functions(e rec2csv), there are a bunch of Format
objects you can pass into the functions that will do things like color
negative values red, set percent formatting and scaling, etc.

Example usage::

    r = csv2rec('somefile.csv', checkrows=0)

    formatd = dict(
        weight = FormatFloat(2),
        change = FormatPercent(2),
        cost   = FormatThousands(2),
        )


    rec2excel(r, 'test.xls', formatd=formatd)
    rec2csv(r, 'test.csv', formatd=formatd)
    scroll = rec2gtk(r, formatd=formatd)

    win = gtk.Window()
    win.set_size_request(600,800)
    win.add(scroll)
    win.show_all()
    gtk.main()

    Keyword arguments:

      *NFFT*: integer
          The number of data points used in each block for the FFT.
          Must be even; a power 2 is most efficient.  The default value is 256.
          This should *NOT* be used to get zero padding, or the scaling of the
          result will be incorrect. Use *pad_to* for this instead.

      *Fs*: scalar
          The sampling frequency (samples per time unit).  It is used
          to calculate the Fourier frequencies, freqs, in cycles per time
          unit. The default value is 2.

      *detrend*: callable
          The function applied to each segment before fft-ing,
          designed to remove the mean or linear trend.  Unlike in
          MATLAB, where the *detrend* parameter is a vector, in
          matplotlib is it a function.  The :mod:`~matplotlib.pylab`
          module defines :func:`~matplotlib.pylab.detrend_none`,
          :func:`~matplotlib.pylab.detrend_mean`, and
          :func:`~matplotlib.pylab.detrend_linear`, but you can use
          a custom function as well.

      *window*: callable or ndarray
          A function or a vector of length *NFFT*. To create window
          vectors see :func:`window_hanning`, :func:`window_none`,
          :func:`numpy.blackman`, :func:`numpy.hamming`,
          :func:`numpy.bartlett`, :func:`scipy.signal`,
          :func:`scipy.signal.get_window`, etc. The default is
          :func:`window_hanning`.  If a function is passed as the
          argument, it must take a data segment as an argument and
          return the windowed version of the segment.

      *noverlap*: integer
          The number of points of overlap between blocks.  The default value
          is 0 (no overlap).

      *pad_to*: integer
          The number of points to which the data segment is padded when
          performing the FFT.  This can be different from *NFFT*, which
          specifies the number of data points used.  While not increasing
          the actual resolution of the psd (the minimum distance between
          resolvable peaks), this can give more points in the plot,
          allowing for more detail. This corresponds to the *n* parameter
          in the call to fft(). The default is None, which sets *pad_to*
          equal to *NFFT*

      *sides*: [ 'default' | 'onesided' | 'twosided' ]
          Specifies which sides of the PSD to return.  Default gives the
          default behavior, which returns one-sided for real data and both
          for complex data.  'onesided' forces the return of a one-sided PSD,
          while 'twosided' forces two-sided.

      *scale_by_freq*: boolean
          Specifies whether the resulting density values should be scaled
          by the scaling frequency, which gives density in units of Hz^-1.
          This allows for integration over the returned frequency values.
          The default is True for MATLAB compatibility.

    Call signature::

      Cxy, Phase, freqs = cohere_pairs( X, ij, ...)

    Compute the coherence and phase for all pairs *ij*, in *X*.

    *X* is a *numSamples* * *numCols* array

    *ij* is a list of tuples.  Each tuple is a pair of indexes into
    the columns of X for which you want to compute coherence.  For
    example, if *X* has 64 columns, and you want to compute all
    nonredundant pairs, define *ij* as::

      ij = []
      for i in range(64):
          for j in range(i+1,64):
              ij.append( (i,j) )

    *preferSpeedOverMemory* is an optional bool. Defaults to true. If
    False, limits the caching by only making one, rather than two,
    complex cache arrays. This is useful if memory becomes critical.
    Even when *preferSpeedOverMemory* is False, :func:`cohere_pairs`
    will still give significant performace gains over calling
    :func:`cohere` for each pair, and will use subtantially less
    memory than if *preferSpeedOverMemory* is True.  In my tests with
    a 43000,64 array over all nonredundant pairs,
    *preferSpeedOverMemory* = True delivered a 33% performance boost
    on a 1.7GHZ Athlon with 512MB RAM compared with
    *preferSpeedOverMemory* = False.  But both solutions were more
    than 10x faster than naively crunching all possible pairs through
    :func:`cohere`.

    Returns::

       (Cxy, Phase, freqs)

    where:

      - *Cxy*: dictionary of (*i*, *j*) tuples -> coherence vector for
        that pair.  I.e., ``Cxy[(i,j) = cohere(X[:,i], X[:,j])``.
        Number of dictionary keys is ``len(ij)``.

      - *Phase*: dictionary of phases of the cross spectral density at
        each frequency for each pair.  Keys are (*i*, *j*).

      - *freqs*: vector of frequencies, equal in length to either the
         coherence or phase vectors for any (*i*, *j*) key.

    Eg., to make a coherence Bode plot::

          subplot(211)
          plot( freqs, Cxy[(12,19)])
          subplot(212)
          plot( freqs, Phase[(12,19)])

    For a large number of pairs, :func:`cohere_pairs` can be much more
    efficient than just calling :func:`cohere` for each pair, because
    it caches most of the intensive computations.  If :math:`N` is the
    number of pairs, this function is :math:`O(N)` for most of the
    heavy lifting, whereas calling cohere for each pair is
    :math:`O(N^2)`.  However, because of the caching, it is also more
    memory intensive, making 2 additional complex arrays with
    approximately the same number of elements as *X*.

    See :file:`test/cohere_pairs_test.py` in the src tree for an
    example script that shows that this :func:`cohere_pairs` and
    :func:`cohere` give the same results for a given pair.

    - *usecols*, if not *None*, is a sequence of integer column indexes to
      extract where 0 is the first column, eg ``usecols=[1,4,5]`` to extract
      just the 2nd, 5th and 6th columns

    - *unpack*, if *True*, will transpose the matrix allowing you to unpack
      into named arguments on the left hand side::

        t,y = load('test.dat', unpack=True) # for  two column data
        x,y,z = load('somefile.dat', usecols=[3,5,7], unpack=True)

    frange([start,] stop[, step, keywords]) -> array of floats

    Return a numpy ndarray containing a progression of floats. Similar to
    :func:`numpy.arange`, but defaults to a closed interval.

    ``frange(x0, x1)`` returns ``[x0, x0+1, x0+2, ..., x1]``; *start*
    defaults to 0, and the endpoint *is included*. This behavior is
    different from that of :func:`range` and
    :func:`numpy.arange`. This is deliberate, since :func:`frange`
    will probably be more useful for generating lists of points for
    function evaluation, and endpoints are often desired in this
    use. The usual behavior of :func:`range` can be obtained by
    setting the keyword *closed* = 0, in this case, :func:`frange`
    basically becomes :func:numpy.arange`.

    When *step* is given, it specifies the increment (or
    decrement). All arguments can be floating point numbers.

    ``frange(x0,x1,d)`` returns ``[x0,x0+d,x0+2d,...,xfin]`` where
    *xfin* <= *x1*.

    :func:`frange` can also be called with the keyword *npts*. This
    sets the number of points the list should contain (and overrides
    the value *step* might have been given). :func:`numpy.arange`
    doesn't offer this option.

    Examples::

      >>> frange(3)
      array([ 0.,  1.,  2.,  3.])
      >>> frange(3,closed=0)
      array([ 0.,  1.,  2.])

    vectors (*x*, *y*, *z*).  :func:`griddata` interpolates this
    surface at the points specified by (*xi*, *yi*) to produce
    *zi*. *xi* and *yi* must describe a regular grid, can be either 1D
    or 2D, but must be monotonically increasing.

    A masked array is returned if any grid points are outside convex
    hull defined by input data (no extrapolation is done).

    If interp keyword is set to '`nn`' (default),
    uses natural neighbor interpolation based on Delaunay
    triangulation.  By default, this algorithm is provided by the
    :mod:`matplotlib.delaunay` package, written by Robert Kern.  The
    triangulation algorithm in this package is known to fail on some
    nearly pathological cases. For this reason, a separate toolkit
    (:mod:`mpl_tookits.natgrid`) has been created that provides a more
    robust algorithm fof triangulation and interpolation.  This
    toolkit is based on the NCAR natgrid library, which contains code
    that is not redistributable under a BSD-compatible license.  When
    installed, this function will use the :mod:`mpl_toolkits.natgrid`
    algorithm, otherwise it will use the built-in
    :mod:`matplotlib.delaunay` package.

    If the interp keyword is set to '`linear`', then linear interpolation
    is used instead of natural neighbor. In this case, the output grid
    is assumed to be regular with a constant grid spacing in both the x and
    y directions. For regular grids with nonconstant grid spacing, you
    must use natural neighbor interpolation.  Linear interpolation is only valid if
    :mod:`matplotlib.delaunay` package is used - :mod:`mpl_tookits.natgrid`
    only provides natural neighbor interpolation.
