tonic.functional.refractory_period_numpy(events: ndarray, refractory_period: float)[source]#

Sets a refractory period for each pixel, during which events will be ignored/discarded. We keep events if:

\[t_n - t_{n-1} > t_{refrac}\]
Parameters:

  • events (ndarray) – ndarray of shape [num_events, num_event_channels]

  • refractory_period (float) – refractory period for each pixel in microseconds

Returns:

filtered set of events.
