Tridesclous 2: tuning

Names on this page

Names in code font are fields of the sorter’s Rust configuration; --show-config prints them all with their values. The ones dspk sort accepts as flags are on the settings page. The rest are reachable from Rust only, for now.

Setting	Raise it	Lower it
detect_threshold (5)	fewer, larger peaks clustered and peeled	more small units, more noise peaks
n_pca_features (6)	more dimensions per split: finer clusters, slower	coarser clusters
isocut_threshold (2.0)	fewer splits (more merging in isosplit)	more splits
merge_similarity (0.8)	fewer template merges	more merges of similar units
peeler_amplitude_min (0.7)	only spikes close to their template’s size	more partial matches
n_peaks_per_channel (5000)	more peaks clustered: rare units, slower	faster

Check a change with the labels and composite score of the sorting, and against another sorter on the same recording (Benchmarks).
