In mcfreund/mfutils: Personal miscellaneous utility functions

mfutils

The mfutils package is a collection of R functions that I frequently use for data analysis. Most of these functions I have created myself, however some I have found on the interwebs (e.g., stack overflow), in which case I have also included the relevant attribution/url in the documentation.

These functions can be sorted into different categories:

• general utilities for constructing and manipulating base R objects, such as character vectors and lists
• common matrix operations
• plotting (mostly ggplot2 enhancements)
• tools for implementing representational similarity analysis (RSA), including spatial prewhitening and various distance measures
• convenience functions for working with gifti objects from the gifti package (for surface fMRI data)
• as well as functions that enforce a standardized way to use parcellation atlases

Currently, I prefer to have all of these functions within a single package. As this package becomes more developed, I may split off encapsulated sets of functions into separate packages.

Installation

If for whatever reason you would like to install this package, you can do so with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("mcfreund/mfutils")
