1.8. Importing Data from Matlab


You can create spike trains (1xN or Nx1 matrices with timestamps in seconds) or continuous
variables in Matlab and transfer them to NeuroExplorer on the fly. Here is how to do this:

Select File | New menu command.
Select Matlab | Get Data From Matlab... | Open Matlab As Engine menu command.
NeuroExplorer will open Matlab as engine.
In opened Matlab, run your Matlab scripts and create (or load from file) spike train variables or
continuous variables.
To import timestamp variables, in NeuroExplorer, select Matlab | Get Data From Matlab... | Get
Timestamp Variables...
menu command. NeuroExplorer will open a dialog with the list of
available Matlab variables.
In the dialog, select the variables you want to transfer to NeuroExplorer and press OK.
To import continuous variables, in NeuroExplorer, select Matlab | Get Data From Matlab... |
Get Continuous Variables...
menu command. NeuroExplorer will open a dialog with the list of
available Matlab variables.
In the dialog, select one of the variables you want to transfer to NeuroExplorer and press OK.
NeuroExplorer will open a dialog where you will specify the variable options.
