eelbrain.plot.Topomap

class eelbrain.plot.Topomap(y, xax=None, data=None, sub=None, vmax=None, vmin=None, cmap=None, contours=None, proj='default', res=None, interpolation=None, clip='even', clip_distance=0.05, head_radius=None, head_pos=0, im_interpolation=None, sensors='.', sensorlabels=None, mark=None, mcolor=None, msize=20, marker='o', axtitle=True, xlabel=None, margins=None, **kwargs)

Plot individual topogeraphies

Parameters:

  • y (NDVarArg | Sequence[NDVarArg]) – Data to plot.

  • xax (CategorialArg) – Create a separate plot for each cell in this model.

  • data (Dataset) – If a Dataset is provided, data can be specified as strings.

  • sub (IndexArg) – Specify a subset of the data.

  • vmax (float) – Upper limits for the colormap (default is determined from data).

  • vmin (float) – Lower limit for the colormap (default -vmax).

  • cmap (CMapArg) – Colormap (default depends on the data).

  • contours (int | Sequence | dict) – Draw contours. Can be an int (number of contours, including vmin and vmax), a sequence (values at which to draw contours), or a dictionary with **kwargs for contour() (must include a "levels" key). Default is no contours.

  • proj (str) – The sensor projection to use for topomaps (or one projection per plot).

  • res (int) – Resolution of the topomaps (width = height = res).

  • interpolation (InterpolationArg) – Method for interpolating topo-map between sensors (default is based on mne-python).

  • clip (bool | 'even' | 'circle') – Outline for clipping topomaps: ‘even’ to clip at a constant distance (default), ‘circle’ to clip using a circle.

  • clip_distance (float) – How far from sensor locations to clip (1 is the axes height/width).

  • head_radius (float | tuple[float, float]) – Radius of the head outline drawn over sensors (on sensor plots with normalized positions, 0.45 is the outline of the topomap); 0 to plot no outline; tuple for separate (right, anterior) radius. The default is determined automatically.

  • head_pos (float | Sequence[float]) – Head outline position along the anterior axis (0 is the center, 0.5 is the top end of the plot).

  • im_interpolation (str) – Topomap image interpolation (see Matplotlib’s imshow()). Matplotlib 1.5.3’s SVG output can’t handle uneven aspect with interpolation='none', use interpolation='nearest' instead.

  • sensors (str | matplotlib.markers.MarkerStyle) – How to mark sensor locations in the topomap (empty string '' to omit marks).

  • sensorlabels (SensorLabelsArg) – Show sensor labels. For ‘name’, any prefix common to all names is removed; with ‘fullname’, the full name is shown.

  • mark (IndexArg) – Sensors which to mark.

  • mcolor (ColorArg | Sequence[ColorArg]) – Color for marked sensors (see matplotlib.pyplot.scatter()).

  • msize (float | Sequence[float]) – Size of the markers (see matplotlib.pyplot.scatter()).

  • marker (str | matplotlib.markers.MarkerStyle) – Marker shape (see matplotlib.pyplot.scatter()).

  • axtitle (bool | Sequence[str]) – Title for the individual axes. The default is to show the names of the epochs, but only if multiple axes are plotted.

  • xlabel (bool | str) – Label below the topomaps (default is no label; True to use y names).

  • margins (dict[str, float]) – Layout parameter.

  • ... – Also accepts General layout parameters.

Notes

Keys:

  • t: open a Topomap plot for the region under the mouse pointer.

  • T: open a larger Topomap plot with visible sensor names for the map under the mouse pointer.
