Neuropype 2023: Our Biggest Release Yet

Neuropype 2023: Our Biggest Release Yet

It's time for our next major release (2023) to our NeuroPype signal processing suite! This is our biggest release to date, with major new features and literally hundreds of new nodes that continue to expand NeuroPype's capabilities and use cases.

A major new component is the ability to create and run deep neural networks inside NeuroPype pipelines, with convolution layers, dense layers, normalizations, activations, optimizers, schedules, cross-validation, training, and inference. Comprehensive deep learning models, such as EEGNET can now be expressed as a NeuroPype pipeline. You can now create end-to-end pipelines from data curation, preprocessing and feature extraction, to deep learning predictions and cross-validation. These pipelines can also process multiple modalities (i.e., EEG, Gaze, other biosignal data) and incorporate them into the same model.
