1.2.2

Release Notes

Note: Versions 1.2.0 and 1.2.1 contained an error which made them unable to be installed properly. They have been deleted from PyPI and from the releases.

Version 1.2.2 Updates

multiverse module

• New return option for multiverse results.
  as_df=True option in get_results() will return a user-friendly DataFrame
• New plotting function for multiverse results.
  multiverse_plot() will create a multiverse plot which solves many downsides of specification curves, especially for large multiverses. Examples are available in the documentation (e.g.: https://comet-toolbox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sections/notebooks/example_mv_plot.html)
• (Very) early functionalities for multiverse integration, still work in progress and undocumented

cifti module

• parcellate() was significantly enhanced to allow for many more atlases and the return of labels/networks.
  For more information refer to the documentation: https://comet-toolbox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sections/modules/cifti.html
• A new get_networks() helper function was added to help with extracting network structure/labels

graph module

• Added a new scaling function minmax_scale() for networks, which allows users to scale the values in connectivity/adjacency matrices

network module

• Created a new network module, which so far includes an early version of the Nested Spectral Partition method as implemented in https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2022288118 (further documentation and tests are still work in progress)

misc

• New tutorial for multiverse visualisation: https://comet-toolbox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sections/notebooks/example_mv_plot.htm
