eyeris (version 2.1.1)

downsample: Downsample pupil time series with anti-aliasing filtering

Description

This function downsamples pupillometry data by applying an anti-aliasing filter before decimation. Unlike binning, downsampling preserves the original temporal dynamics without averaging within bins.

Usage

downsample(
  eyeris,
  target_fs,
  plot_freqz = FALSE,
  rp = 1,
  rs = 35,
  call_info = NULL
)

Value

An eyeris object with downsampled data and updated sampling rate.

Arguments

eyeris

An object of class eyeris derived from load_asc().

target_fs

The target sampling frequency in Hz after downsampling.

plot_freqz

Boolean flag for displaying filter frequency response (default FALSE).

rp

Passband ripple in dB (default 1).

rs

Stopband attenuation in dB (default 35).

call_info

A list of call information and parameters. If not provided, it will be generated from the function call.

Details

Downsampling reduces the sampling frequency by decimating data points. The function automatically designs an anti-aliasing filter using the lpfilt() function with carefully chosen parameters:

• ws (stopband frequency) = Fs_new / 2 (Nyquist freq of new sampling rate)

• wp (passband frequency) = ws - max(5, Fs_nq * 0.2)

• An error is raised if wp < 4 to prevent loss of pupillary responses

The resulting time points will be: 0, 1/X, 2/X, 3/X, ..., etc. where X is the new sampling frequency.
