(2018).random_state (None, int, numpy.random.RandomState or numpy.random.Generator) – Seed for the random number generator. See for
misc.check_random_statefor further information.random_state_distort ({‘legacy’, ‘spawn’}, None, int, numpy.random.RandomState or numpy.random.Generator) – Random state to be used to distort the signal. If

If"spawn", spawn independent children random number generators from the random_state argument. If any of the other types, generate independent children random number generators from the random_state_distort provided (this allows generating multiple version of the same signal distorted by different random noise realizations).

Compute respiratory amplitude given the raw respiration signal and its extrema. The standard method computes the amplitude as the difference between a peak and its preceding trough, while the prepost method computes the amplitude as the average of the differences of peak to its preceding and succeeding troughs (Cole, 2019).
- Parameters:
rsp_cleaned (Union[list, np.array, pd.Series]) – The cleaned respiration channel as returned by
rsp_clean().peaks (list or array or DataFrame or Series or dict) – The samples at which the respiration peaks (exhalation onsets) occur. If a dict or a DataFrame is passed, it is assumed that these containers were obtained with
rsp_findpeaks().troughs (list or array or DataFrame or Series or dict) – The samples at which the respiration troughs (inhalation onsets) occur. If a dict or a is passed, it is assumed that these containers were obtained with
rsp_findpeaks().method (str) – The method to use to compute the amplitude. Can be
"standard"or"prepost".interpolation_method (str) – Method used to interpolate the amplitude between peaks. See
signal_interpolate()."monotone_cubic"is chosen as the default interpolation method since it ensures monotone interpolation between data point (i.e., it prevents physiologically implausible “overshoots” or “undershoots” in the y-direction). In contrast, the widely used cubic spline ‘interpolation does not ensure monotonicity.

Respiratory Volume per Time (RVT)
Computes Respiratory Volume per Time (RVT). RVT is the product of respiratory volume and breathing rate. RVT can be used to identify the global fMRI confounds of breathing, which is often considered noise.
- Parameters:
rsp_signal (array) – Array containing the respiratory rate, produced by
signal_rate().sampling_rate (int, optional) – The sampling frequency of the signal (in Hz, i.e., samples/second).
method (str, optional) – The rvt method to apply. Can be one of
"power2020"(default),"harrison2021"or"birn2006".boundaries (list, optional) – Only applies if method is
"harrison". Lower and upper limit of (humanly possible) breath frequency in Hertz.iterations (int, optional) – Only applies if method is
"harrison". Amount of phase refinement estimates to remove high frequencies. Synthetic samples often take less than 3.show (bool, optional) – If
True, will return a simple plot of the RVT (with the re-scaled original RSP signal).silent (bool, optional) – If
True, warnings will not be printed.**kwargs – Arguments to be passed to the underlying peak detection algorithm.
- Returns:
array – Array containing the current RVT at every timestep.
