Multivariate Pattern Analysis in Python

# PyMVPA Courses

Tutorial Introduction to PyMVPA provides a collection of materials which could either be used for learning PyMVPA independently, or for teaching PyMVPA in workshops. This page provides a collection of programs, slides, and tutorials used in the past PyMVPA courses.
