Deep learning-based spike sorting: a survey.

Deep learning is increasingly permeating neuroscience, leading to a rise in signal-processing applications for extracellular recordings. These signals capture the activity of small neuronal populations, necessitating 'spike sorting' to assign action potentials (spikes) to their underlying neurons. With the rise in publications delving into new methodologies and techniques for deep learning-based spike sorting, it is crucial to synthesise these findings critically.
