Code to replicate an older version of the figures in Velez-Fort, Cossell, Porta, Clopath, Margrie (2025). Code developed in MATLAB 2021a on Windows 10.
This code requires rc2_analysis to be on the MATLAB path, and the formatted data.
Open all_figures.m and change the options at the top of that file. Options are:
save_enabled: whether to save the outputted figures
save_dir: where to save the outputted figures
load_data_at_start: whether to load all the data before running the code to generate the figures.
Pre-loading the data makes processing much faster, but takes up more memory than the average machine has (on the order of 100GB).
Run:
- setup_paths (specify the paths in the
path_config.mfile and runsetup_paths.min therc2_analysisproject) - load_all_data (in case load_data_at_start = false)
- all_figures
Running all_figures.m will generate all figures/figure panels and print statistics to the MATLAB command window.
For certain velocity and acceleration related plots, it will be necessary to re-create the tuning curve tables. You can do so via create_tables.m and create_tables_acceleration.m.
