Documentation

Documentation for this project is hosted here.

You can find a list of examples within the documentation.

Features

MNE-NIRS and MNE-Python provide a wide variety of tools to use when processing fNIRS data including:

• Loading data from a wide variety of devices, including SNIRF files.

• Apply 3D sensor locations from common digitisation systems such as Polhemus.

• Standard preprocessing including optical density calculation and Beer-Lambert Law conversion, filtering, etc.

• Data quality metrics including scalp coupling index and peak power.

• GLM analysis with a wide variety of cusomisation including including FIR or canonical HRF analysis, higher order autoregressive noise models, short channel regression, region of interest analysis, etc.

• Visualisation tools for all stages of processing from raw data to processed waveforms, GLM result visualisation, including both sensor and cortical surface projections.

• Data cleaning functions including popular short channel techniques and negative correlation enhancement.

• Group level analysis using (robust) linear mixed effects models and waveform averaging.

• And much more! Check out the documentation examples and the API for more details.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome (more than welcome!). Contributions can be feature requests, improved documentation, bug reports, code improvements, new code, etc. Anything will be appreciated. Note: this package adheres to the same contribution standards as MNE.
