A robust spike sorting method based on the joint optimization of linear discrimination analysis and density peaks.

ABSTRACT: Spike sorting is a fundamental step in extracting single-unit activity from neural ensemble recordings, which play an important role in basic neuroscience and neurotechnologies. A few algorithms have been applied in spike sorting. However, when noise level or waveform similarity becomes relatively high, their robustness still faces a big challenge. In this study, we propose a spike sorting method combining Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Density Peaks (DP) for feature extraction and clustering. Relying on the joint optimization of LDA and DP: DP provides more accurate classification labels for LDA, LDA extracts more discriminative features to cluster for DP, and the algorithm achieves high performance after iteration. We first compared the proposed LDA-DP algorithm with several algo
