Description: # Causal Dynamic Network Modeling
        cdn-fmri is a Python-based package implementing causal dynamic network analysis for Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). It aims to improve the dynamic causal modeling with the optimization based method. Our optimization-based method and algorithm compute efficiently the ODE parameters from fMRI data, instead of comparing potentially a huge number of candidate ODE models. For a detailed introduction of dynamic causal modeling, see [(1)].
        
        
        
        ## Getting Started
        This package supports both python 2.7 and python 3.6.
        
        The example provided in the repo has been tested in mac os and Linux environment. 
        
        These instructions will get you a copy of the project up running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. 
        
        This package is also published in pypi.  For a quick installation, try
        
        ```
        pip install cdn-fmri 
        ```
        
        ### Prerequisites
        
        What things you need to install the software and how to install them

        ### Intro to our package
        After installing our package locally, try to import cdn in your python environment and learn about package's function. 
        Note: our package name in pypi is cdn-fmri.
        ```
        import cdn.cdn_analysis as cdn_analysis
        help(cdn_analysis.cdn_multi_sub)
        ```
        
        
        ### Examples
        ```
        The examples subfolder includes a basic analysis of CDN analysis.
        ```
