PyMVPA: 2.4.1

2.4.1 (Wed, 18 Nov 2015)

• New functionality

  • :class:~mvpa.datasets.gifti can write GIFTI files that contain both dataset samples and surface anatomy (vertices and faces). Such GIFTI files can be read by FreeSurfer.

• Deprecations/removal

  • :file:tools/niils -- tool removed, since the functionality was moved into :mod:nibabel under the name nib-ls
  • Drop support for nibabel < 2.0.0

• Enhancements

  • "Native" use of :mod:~duecredit to provide citations for PyMVPA itself and functionality/methods it implements.
  • Unified use of os.path.join as pathjoin.
  • :class:~mvpa.mappers.procrustean.ProcrusteanMapper computes reconstruction now more efficiently (just a transpose with proper scaling) in case of non-oblique transformations.

• Refactorings/misc changes

  • :class:~mvpa.mappers.procrustean.ProcrusteanMapper now just returns transpose in reverse if transformation is non-oblique (instead of an explicit inverse).

• Fixes

  • 2.4.0 was released with incorrect __version__ (as 2.3.1)
  • Fixes to ofmotionqc command implementation
  • Variety of fixes for compatibility with recent matplotlib, python3
  • Fixes to SVDMapper in reverse when projection is not a matrix
