NLTools

Python toolbox for analyzing neuroimaging data. It is particularly useful for conducting multivariate analyses. It is originally based on Tor Wager's object oriented matlab canlab core tools and relies heavily on nilearn and scikit learn. Nltools is compatible with Python 3.6+. Python 2.7 was only supported through 0.3.11. We will no longer be supporting Python2 starting with version 0.3.12.

Installation
