# mne.simulation.select_source_in_label¶

mne.simulation.select_source_in_label(src, label, random_state=None, location='random', subject=None, subjects_dir=None, surf='sphere')

Select source positions using a label

Parameters: src : list of dict The source space label : Label the label (read with mne.read_label) random_state : None | int | np.random.RandomState To specify the random generator state. location : str The label location to choose. Can be ‘random’ (default) or ‘center’ to use mne.Label.center_of_mass() (restricting to vertices both in the label and in the source space). Note that for ‘center’ mode the label values are used as weights. New in version 0.13. subject : string | None The subject the label is defined for. Only used with location='center'. New in version 0.13. subjects_dir : str, or None Path to the SUBJECTS_DIR. If None, the path is obtained by using the environment variable SUBJECTS_DIR. Only used with location='center'. New in version 0.13. surf : str The surface to use for Euclidean distance center of mass finding. The default here is “sphere”, which finds the center of mass on the spherical surface to help avoid potential issues with cortical folding. New in version 0.13. lh_vertno : list selected source coefficients on the left hemisphere rh_vertno : list selected source coefficients on the right hemisphere
