#NeuroRA
A Python Toolbox of Representational Analysis from Multimode Neural Data
Representational Similarity Analysis (RSA) has become a popular and effective method to measure the representation of multivariable neural activity in different modes.
NeuroRA is an easy-to-use toolbox based on Python, which can do some works about RSA among nearly all kinds of neural data, including behavioral, EEG, MEG, fNIRS, ECoG, fMRI and some other neuroelectrophysiological data. In addition, users can do Neural Pattern Similarity (NPS), Spatiotemporal Pattern Similarity (STPS) & Inter-Subject Correlation (ISC) on NeuroRA.
pip install neurora
