measures.corrstability

Module: measures.corrstability

Inheritance diagram for mvpa.measures.corrstability:

FeaturewiseDatasetMeasure of stability of labels across chunks based on correlation.

CorrStability

class mvpa.measures.corrstability.CorrStability(attr='labels', **kwargs)

Bases: mvpa.measures.base.FeaturewiseDatasetMeasure

FeaturewiseDatasetMeasure that assesses feature stability across runs for each unique label by correlating label activity for pairwise combinations of the chunks.

If there are multiple samples with the same label in a single chunk (as is typically the case) this algorithm will take the featurewise average of the sample activations to get a single value per label, per chunk.

Note

Available state variables:

• base_sensitivities: Stores basic sensitivities if the sensitivity relies on combining multiple ones
• null_prob+: State variable
• null_t: State variable
• raw_result: Computed results before applying any transformation algorithm

(States enabled by default are listed with +)

Initialize

Parameters:

• attr (basestring) – Attribute to correlate across chunks.
• enable_states (None or list of basestring) – Names of the state variables which should be enabled additionally to default ones
• disable_states (None or list of basestring) – Names of the state variables which should be disabled
• combiner (Functor) – The combiner is only applied if the computed featurewise dataset measure is more than one-dimensional. This is different from a transformer, which is always applied. By default, the sum of absolute values along the second axis is computed.
