meierlab.outliers.compute_sd_thresholds#

meierlab.outliers.compute_sd_thresholds(mean, sd, threshold=3)[source]#

Helper function to create Nifti images that are a certain standard deviation above and below the mean, as determined by the given threshold (default 3).

Parameters:
meanimage (Nifti1Image or file name)

Mean image of the dataset.

sdimage (Nifti1Image or file name)

Standard deviation image of the dataset.

thresholdint, optional

Outlier threshold, by default 3.

Returns:
tuple

thresh_above corresponding to the data <threshold> SD above the mean. thresh_below corresponding to the data <threshold> SD below the mean. upper_cap containing a Nifti-like image at the upper limit of data. lower_cap containing a Nifti-like image at the lower limit of data.
