While trying with the mne downsampling module, I encountered some behavior
that I am unable to explain myself.
My understanding of downsampling is that it is an operation to decrease the
sample rate of x by keeping the first sample and then every nth sample after
the first.
The example provided from the resample method of scipy package clearly
illustrated about this operation as depicted the picture which is accessible
from the link (
<https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.signal.resample.
html)>
https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.signal.resample.h
tml) or as extracted below
In an enlarged view, it is evident that the original data points were
resampled point by point.
However, using the mne example of downsampling which accessible via the link
: <https://mne.tools/dev/auto_examples/preprocessing/plot_resample.html>
https://mne.tools/dev/auto_examples/preprocessing/plot_resample.html
, I notice that the data points were not resampled point by point as
illustrated visually below
This given that, mne resample is based on the resample method of scipy
package as indicated from mne resample function as shown:

3b8fde0fb/mne/filter.py#L1342
May I know whether this issue is due to the ringing artifacts or due to
other problems?
Also, are there remedies to mitigate this problem.
Thanks for any insight. Appreciate it
Cheers
Rodney
