nimare.transforms.ImageTransformer

class ImageTransformer(target, overwrite=False)[source]

Bases: nimare.base.Transformer

A class to create new images from existing ones within a Dataset.

This class is a light wrapper around transform_images().

New in version 0.0.9.

Parameters
  • target ({'z', 'p', 'beta', 'varcope'} or list) – Target image type. Multiple target types may be specified as a list.

  • overwrite (bool, optional) – Whether to overwrite existing files or not. Default is False.

nimare.transforms.transform_images

The function called by this class.

Methods

get_params([deep])

Get parameters for this estimator.

load(filename[, compressed])

Load a pickled class instance from file.

save(filename[, compress])

Pickle the class instance to the provided file.

set_params(**params)

Set the parameters of this estimator.

transform(dataset)

Generate images of the target type from other image types in a Dataset.

get_params(deep=True)[source]

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters

deep (bool, optional) – If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns

params – Parameter names mapped to their values.

Return type

dict

classmethod load(filename, compressed=True)[source]

Load a pickled class instance from file.

Parameters
  • filename (str) – Name of file containing object.

  • compressed (bool, optional) – If True, the file is assumed to be compressed and gzip will be used to load it. Otherwise, it will assume that the file is not compressed. Default = True.

Returns

obj – Loaded class object.

Return type

class object

save(filename, compress=True)[source]

Pickle the class instance to the provided file.

Parameters
  • filename (str) – File to which object will be saved.

  • compress (bool, optional) – If True, the file will be compressed with gzip. Otherwise, the uncompressed version will be saved. Default = True.

set_params(**params)[source]

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as pipelines). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Return type

self

transform(dataset)[source]

Generate images of the target type from other image types in a Dataset.

Parameters

dataset (Dataset) – A Dataset containing images and relevant metadata.

Returns

new_dataset – A copy of the input Dataset, with new images added to its images attribute.

Return type

Dataset
