""" ================================================= Generate a functional label from source estimates ================================================= Threshold source estimates and produce a functional label. The label is typically the region of interest that contains high values. Here we compare the average time course in the anatomical label obtained by FreeSurfer segmentation and the average time course from the functional label. As expected the time course in the functional label yields higher values.
