 classdef AbstractFeatureSeries < types.core.TimeSeries & types.untyped.GroupClass
-% ABSTRACTFEATURESERIES - Abstract features, such as quantitative descriptions of sensory stimuli. The TimeSeries::data field is a 2D array, storing those features (e.g., for visual grating stimulus this might be orientation, spatial frequency and contrast). Null stimuli (eg, uniform gray) can be marked as being an independent feature (eg, 1.0 for gray, 0.0 for actual stimulus) or by storing NaNs for feature values, or through use of the TimeSeries::control fields. A set of features is considered to persist until the next set of features is defined. The final set of features stored should be the null set. This is useful when storing the raw stimulus is impractical.

For example, a voltage trace would be "continuous", because samples are recorded from a continuous process. An array of lick times would be "instantaneous", because the data represents distinct moments in time. Times of image presentations would be "step" because the picture remains the same until the next timepoint. This field is optional, but is useful in providing information about the underlying data. It may inform the way this data is interpreted, the way it is visualized, and what analysis methods are applicable. For storing instantaneous event information, it is recommended to use an EventsTable instead of a TimeSeries with continuity set to "instantaneous".
