scipy signal find_peaks_cwt not finding the peaks accurately?

Question

I\'ve got a 1-D signal in which I\'m trying to find the peaks. I\'m looking to find them perfectly.

I\'m currently doing:

import scipy.signal as sign         


        

Answer 1

Edited after getting the raw data.

argelmax and arglextrma are out of the race.

The curve is very noisy, so you have to play with small peak width (as pv. mentioned) and the noise.

The best I found looks not very good.

import numpy as np
import scipy.signal as signal

peakidx = signal.find_peaks_cwt(y_array, np.arange(10,15), noise_perc=0.1)
print peakidx

[10, 100, 132, 187, 287, 351, 523, 597, 800, 1157, 1451, 1673, 1742, 1836]
