neurodesign-plus

Extended and maintained fork of the neurodesign package for fMRI experimental design optimisation.

neurodesign-plus extends the original neurodesign package with support for variable stimulus durations, conditional inter-trial intervals, user-defined stimulus ordering, and probabilistic ordering.

Quick Install

pip install neurodesign-plus

Key Features

  • Genetic algorithm optimisation of fMRI experimental designs

  • Variable stimulus durations – specify per-condition distribution-based durations

  • Conditional ITIs – inter-trial intervals that depend on stimulus transitions

  • Fixed or probabilistic ordering – inject user-defined or probability-sampled stimulus orders

  • Four efficiency metrics – Estimation (Fe), Detection (Fd), Confounding (Fc), Frequency (Ff)

  • PDF reports – automatic generation of optimisation result summaries
