Demonstration of adjustable parameters for successful event detection. Effects of smoothing parameters, Polynomial order (a) and Side points (b) on the smoothness of the traces. The recall, precision (top), and mean amplitude (bottom) of the events were calculated from simulated data with SD of noise: 2 pA (c), 6 pA (d), and 10 pA (e). In (c–e), the dashed line indicates the mean amplitude of the original simulated EPSCs
