eelbrain.Categorial

class eelbrain.Categorial(name, values, connectivity='none')

Simple categorial dimension

Parameters:

name : str

Dimension name.

values : sequence of str

Names of the entries.

connectivity : str | list of (str, str) | array of int, (n_edges, 2)

Connectivity between elements. Can be specified as:

• "none" for no connections
• "grid" to use adjacency in values
• list of connections based on items in values (e.g., values=['v1', 'v2', 'v3'], connectivity=[('v1', 'v3'), ('v2', 'v3'), ...])
• numpy.ndarray of int, shape (n_edges, 2), to specify connections in terms of indices. Each row should specify one connection [i, j] with i < j. If the array’s dtype is uint32, property checks are disabled to improve efficiency.

Methods

connectivity(self)	Retrieve the dimension’s connectivity graph
dimindex(self, arg)	Convert a dimension index to an array index
index_into_dim(self, dim)	Index into a subset dimension
intersect(self, dim[, check_dims])	Create a dimension object that is the intersection with dim
