Load example datasets for tutorials

Precomputed association maps for terms ‘default mode’ or ‘frontoparietal’ using Neurosynth. In brief, maps were downloaded from Neurosynth and projected to fsLR space using neuromaps.transforms.mni152_to_fslr. Then, their vertex arrays were saved.

Parameters

  • dataset ({'default_mode', 'frontoparietal'}, optional) – Neurosynth association map. Default: ‘default_mode’

  • join (bool, optional) – Return data as a single concatenated array. Default: False, which returns left and right hemisphere arrays, respectively

Returns

numpy.ndarray – Vertex array(s)
