The six major modules of NeoAnalysis and their functions. Each panel represents one module, and arrows indicate the general workflow. The TransFile module is used to import data from any of the supported formats and extract the data to Analog, Spike, Event and Comment entities, and then convert to a standardized format (HDF5). The AnalogFilter module is used to filter analog signals. The SpikeDetection module can detect spikes from the analog signal and then feed to the SpikeSorting module, which resorts spikes offline. The graphics module first organizes all of the relevant data into a data table on a trial-by-trial basis for data visualization, and then provides functions to analyze the data and display the results. This module supports data computation and saccade detection in addition to common analyses of spikes, local field potentials, and other behaviors. The last module, PopuAnalysis, can retrieve the saved result of each single session and perform population analysis
