Functions

create_con([mode])	Creates a contrast structure for specification of FEAT model
create_ev()	ev=create_ev;
create_fsf([vers])	Populates FEAT fsf structure with default values
fsf_substitute(FSF_file, valdict)
write_fsf(fsf[, output_name])	Parameters:

cmind.utils.fsf_utils.create_con(mode='orig')

Creates a contrast structure for specification of FEAT model

Parameters:

mode : {‘orig’,’real’}

contrast mode

Returns:

con : dict

dictionary with a default ev structure

cmind.utils.fsf_utils.create_ev()

ev=create_ev; Creates a regressor for use in FEAT model

Returns:

ev : dict

dictionary with a default ev structure

cmind.utils.fsf_utils.create_fsf(vers=6.0)

cmind.utils.fsf_utils.fsf_substitute(FSF_file, valdict)

cmind.utils.fsf_utils.write_fsf(fsf, output_name=None)

Parameters:

fsf : dict

fsf dictionary to be written

output_name : str

string for fsf file output. If unspecified it will be fsf[‘fsldir’]/design.fsf

Returns:

output_name : string

filename of the fsf file that was generated

Notes

write_fsf(fsf);

Writes a FEAT structure file (.fsf) for use with FSL’s FEAT analysis package

fsf is structure with all of the parameters necessary to write out the .fsf file. The default field values are set in create_fsf.m

NOTE: This is still a work in progress. Fortunately, the FEAT GUI will read a partially completed setup file. In effect, it should be possible to create a template for any given analysis and then fill a few fields with pointers to the subject specific files.

# based on a Matlab script by Petr Janata # writes the .fsf file based on information in the structure modification by Gregory Lee for CMIND project
