The GUI is intended as a launcher for Kilosort, to help you run it on your data without errors and to do some sanity checks that it is working properly. It does NOT include any functionality for manually curating/revising/editing the results of the algorithm, so it is NOT a replacement for Phy or for other careful manual inspection.
To install, first follow the instructions at the main page.
Next, navigate to the kilosort directory and run 'kilosort':
>> cd \my\kilosort2\directory\
>> kilosort
To get started, choose a dataset by clicking "select data file" in the upper left. The data file should be a raw binary file containing just the data matrix, size [nChannels x nTimepoints], with int16 datatype. For more on data files, see below.
After you select the file, Kilosort will try to load it using the default channel map and
Click "Run all" in the bottom left. Note that while it is running, the gui will mostly be un-responsive. You will get status messages in the log box, and more detailed messages at the command window. Figures may appear.
Try clicking somewhere (returning the focus to the window) and try again. Or, be patient for it to finish computing something. If not that, close and re-open the gui.
Try resetting the GUI with the Reset GUI button at upper right and starting over. No? Create an issue with a detailed description.
