Figure 5. Hybrid strategy for real-time spike sorting.

Figure 5

A) In the Template Building Stage, spikes are detected in real time after filtering and ADC of the signal. Unsorted spike events are streamed to a power-demanding computer where templates are built and sent to the low-power platform. B) In the Template Matching Stage, spikes are detected in real time after filtering and ADC. Detected spikes are then compared to the templates via template matching. This method allows streaming only binary spike events with a label indicating which neuron fired at each time.
