NeuroKit2

When to Use This Skill

Apply this skill when working with:

• Cardiac signals: ECG, PPG, heart rate variability (HRV), pulse analysis
• Brain signals: EEG frequency bands, microstates, complexity, source localization
• Autonomic signals: Electrodermal activity (EDA/GSR), skin conductance responses (SCR)
• Respiratory signals: Breathing rate, respiratory variability (RRV), volume per time
• Muscular signals: EMG amplitude, muscle activation detection
• Eye tracking: EOG, blink detection and analysis
• Multi-modal integration: Processing multiple physiological signals simultaneously
• Complexity analysis: Entropy measures, fractal dimensions, nonlinear dynamics

1. Cardiac Signal Processing (ECG/PPG)

Process electrocardiogram and photoplethysmography signals for cardiovascular analysis. See references/ecg_cardiac.md for detailed workflows.

Primary workflows:

• ECG processing pipeline: cleaning → R-peak detection → delineation → quality assessment
• HRV analysis across time, frequency, and nonlinear domains
• PPG pulse analysis and quality assessment
• ECG-derived respiration extraction
