mvpa2.generators.resampling.ApplySelection

class mvpa2.generators.resampling.ApplySelection(space='balanced_set', **kwargs)

Applies a selection to a dataset

Given a dataset with a boolean sample or feature attribute, return a dataset with only those samples/features marked True.

Notes

Available conditional attributes:

• calling_time+: Time (in seconds) it took to call the node
• raw_results: Computed results before invoking postproc. Stored only if postproc is not None.

(Conditional attributes enabled by default suffixed with +)

Attributes

descr	Description of the object if any
pass_attr	Which attributes of the dataset or self.ca to pass into result dataset upon call
postproc	Node to perform post-processing of results
space	Processing space name of this node

Methods

__call__(ds[, _call_kwargs])	The default implementation calls _precall(), _call(), and finally returns the output of _postcall().
generate(ds)	Yield processing results.
get_postproc()	Returns the post-processing node or None.
get_space()	Query the processing space name of this node.
reset()
set_postproc(node)	Assigns a post-processing node
set_space(name)	Set the processing space name of this node.

Parameters:

space : str

Name of the selection marker attribute in the input dataset that indicates the desired subset.

enable_ca : None or list of str

Names of the conditional attributes which should be enabled in addition to the default ones

disable_ca : None or list of str

Names of the conditional attributes which should be disabled

pass_attr : str, list of str|tuple, optional

Additional attributes to pass on to an output dataset. Attributes can be taken from all three attribute collections of an input dataset (sa, fa, a – see Dataset.get_attr()), or from the collection of conditional attributes (ca) of a node instance. Corresponding collection name prefixes should be used to identify attributes, e.g. ‘ca.null_prob’ for the conditional attribute ‘null_prob’, or ‘fa.stats’ for the feature attribute stats. In addition to a plain attribute identifier it is possible to use a tuple to trigger more complex operations. The first tuple element is the attribute identifier, as described before. The second element is the name of the target attribute collection (sa, fa, or a). The third element is the axis number of a multidimensional array that shall be swapped with the current first axis. The fourth element is a new name that shall be used for an attribute in the output dataset. Example: (‘ca.null_prob’, ‘fa’, 1, ‘pvalues’) will take the conditional attribute ‘null_prob’ and store it as a feature attribute ‘pvalues’, while swapping the first and second axes. Simplified instructions can be given by leaving out consecutive tuple elements starting from the end.

postproc : Node instance, optional

Node to perform post-processing of results. This node is applied in __call__() to perform a final processing step on the to be result dataset. If None, nothing is done.

descr : str

Description of the instance
