labs.utils.simul_multisubject_fmri_dataset

Module: labs.utils.simul_multisubject_fmri_dataset

This module conatins a function to produce a dataset which simulates a collection of 2D images This dataset is saved as a 3D image (each slice being a subject) and a 3D array

Functions

nipy.labs.utils.simul_multisubject_fmri_dataset.surrogate_2d_dataset(n_subj=10, shape=(30, 30), sk=1.0, noise_level=1.0, pos=array([[ 6, 7], [10, 10], [15, 10]]), ampli=array([3, 4, 4]), spatial_jitter=1.0, signal_jitter=1.0, width=5.0, width_jitter=0, out_text_file=None, out_image_file=None, seed=False)

Create surrogate (simulated) 2D activation data with spatial noise

Parameters

n_subj: integer, optionnal

The number of subjects, ie the number of different maps generated.

shape=(30,30): tuple of integers,

the shape of each image

sk: float, optionnal

Amount of spatial noise smoothness.

noise_level: float, optionnal

Amplitude of the spatial noise. amplitude=noise_level)

pos: 2D ndarray of integers, optionnal

x, y positions of the various simulated activations.

ampli: 1D ndarray of floats, optionnal

Respective amplitude of each activation

spatial_jitter: float, optionnal

Random spatial jitter added to the position of each activation, in pixel.

signal_jitter: float, optionnal

Random amplitude fluctuation for each activation, added to the amplitude specified by ampli

width: float or ndarray, optionnal

Width of the activations

width_jitter: float

Relative width jitter of the blobs

out_text_file: string or None, optionnal

If not None, the resulting array is saved as a text file with the given file name

out_image_file: string or None, optionnal

If not None, the resulting is saved as a nifti file with the given file name.

seed=False: int, optionnal

If seed is not False, the random number generator is initialized at a certain value

Returns

dataset: 3D ndarray

The surrogate activation map, with dimensions (n_subj,) + shape
