SOMPlots.plt_nc(mouse_click=False, connect_pick_event=True, **kwargs)[source]

Generates a Neighborhood Connection Map for the SOM, displaying the connections between neighboring neurons.

Parameters:
  • mouse_click (bool, optional) – If True, enables the plot to respond to mouse clicks, allowing for interactive functionality such as querying or modifying neuron data, by default False.

  • connect_pick_event (bool, optional) – If True, connects a pick event that triggers when a neuron is clicked, by default True.

  • **kwargs (dict) – Arbitrary keyword arguments that can be passed to the event handler onpick when an interactive element is clicked. Common parameters could include data specific to the plot or visualization settings.

Returns:

  • fig (matplotlib.figure.Figure) – The Figure object containing the plot.
