criticality

Repo contains code for algorithms which calculate the spatiotemporal propagation of activity (avalanches) and measures critical statistics.

What is this repo for?

• the processing of avalanche dynamics
• the calculation of criticality statistics

What does this repo contain?

• Modules contain functions for avalanche and criticality analyses
• Accompanying ipynotebooks demonstrate how to use the modules
