Getting started with mne.Report

This tutorial covers making interactive HTML summaries with mne.Report.

As usual we’ll start by importing the modules we need and loading some example data:

import os
import mne

Before getting started with mne.Report, make sure the files you want to render follow the filename conventions defined by MNE:

Data object

Filename convention (ends with)

raw

-raw.fif(.gz), -raw_sss.fif(.gz), -raw_tsss.fif(.gz), _meg.fif

events

-eve.fif(.gz)

epochs

-epo.fif(.gz)

evoked

-ave.fif(.gz)

covariance

-cov.fif(.gz)

SSP projectors

-proj.fif(.gz)

trans

-trans.fif(.gz)

forward

-fwd.fif(.gz)

inverse

-inv.fif(.gz)

Alternatively, the dash - in the filename may be replaced with an underscore _.

Basic reports

The basic process for creating an HTML report is to instantiate the Report class, then use the parse_folder() method to select particular files to include in the report. Which files are included depends on both the pattern parameter passed to parse_folder() and also the subject and subjects_dir parameters provided to the Report constructor.

For our first example, we’ll generate a barebones report for all the .fif files containing raw data in the sample dataset, by passing the pattern *raw.fif to parse_folder(). We’ll omit the subject and subjects_dir parameters from the Report constructor, but we’ll also pass render_bem=False to the parse_folder() method — otherwise we would get a warning about not being able to render MRI and trans files without knowing the subject.

path = mne.datasets.sample.data_path(verbose=False)
report = mne.Report(verbose=True)
report.parse_folder(path, pattern='*raw.fif', render_bem=False)
report.save('report_basic.html', overwrite=True)

This report yields a textual summary of the Raw files selected by the pattern. For a slightly more useful report, we’ll ask for the power spectral density of the Raw files, by passing raw_psd=True to the Report constructor. We’ll also visualize the SSP projectors stored in the raw data’s Info dictionary by setting projs=True. Lastly, let’s also refine our pattern to select only the filtered raw recording (omitting the unfiltered data and the empty-room noise recordings):

pattern = 'sample_audvis_filt-0-40_raw.fif'
report = mne.Report(raw_psd=True, projs=True, verbose=True)
report.parse_folder(path, pattern=pattern, render_bem=False)

The sample dataset also contains SSP projectors stored as individual files. To add them to a report, we also have to provide the path to a file containing an Info dictionary, from which the channel locations can be read.

info_fname = os.path.join(path, 'MEG', 'sample',
                          'sample_audvis_filt-0-40_raw.fif')

This time we’ll pass a specific subject and subjects_dir (even though there’s only one subject in the sample dataset) and remove our render_bem=False parameter so we can see the MRI slices, with BEM contours overlaid on top if available. Since this is computationally expensive, we’ll also pass the mri_decim parameter for the benefit of our documentation servers, and skip processing the .fif files:

subjects_dir = os.path.join(path, 'subjects')
report = mne.Report(subject='sample', subjects_dir=subjects_dir, verbose=True)
report.parse_folder(path, pattern='', mri_decim=25)

 ... sample_audvis-no-filter-ave.fif

You have probably noticed that the EEG recordings look particularly odd. This is because by default, Report does not apply baseline correction before rendering evoked data. So if the dataset you wish to add to the report has not been baseline-corrected already, you can request baseline correction here. The MNE sample dataset we’re using in this example has not been baseline-corrected; so let’s do this now for the report!

To request baseline correction, pass a baseline argument to Report, which should be a tuple with the starting and ending time of the baseline period. For more details, see the documentation on apply_baseline. Here, we will apply baseline correction for a baseline period from the beginning of the time interval to time point zero.

baseline = (None, 0)
pattern = 'sample_audvis-no-filter-ave.fif'
report = mne.Report(baseline=baseline, verbose=True)
report.parse_folder(path, pattern=pattern, render_bem=False)
report.save('report_evoked_baseline.html', overwrite=True)

If you want to actually view the noise covariance in the report, make sure it is captured by the pattern passed to parse_folder(), and also include a source for an Info object (any of the Raw, Epochs or Evoked .fif files that contain subject data also contain the measurement information and should work):

pattern = 'sample_audvis-cov.fif'
info_fname = os.path.join(path, 'MEG', 'sample', 'sample_audvis-ave.fif')
report = mne.Report(info_fname=info_fname, verbose=True)
report.parse_folder(path, pattern=pattern, render_bem=False)
report.save('report_cov.html', overwrite=True)

Adding custom plots to a report

The python interface has greater flexibility compared to the command line interface. For example, custom plots can be added via the add_figs_to_section() method:

# generate a custom plot:
fname_evoked = os.path.join(path, 'MEG', 'sample', 'sample_audvis-ave.fif')
evoked = mne.read_evokeds(fname_evoked,
                          condition='Left Auditory',
                          baseline=(None, 0),
                          verbose=True)
fig = evoked.plot(show=False)

# add the custom plot to the report:
report.add_figs_to_section(fig, captions='Left Auditory', section='evoked')
report.save('report_custom.html', overwrite=True)

Out:

Managing report sections

The MNE report command internally manages the sections so that plots belonging to the same section are rendered consecutively. Within a section, the plots are ordered in the same order that they were added using the add_figs_to_section() command. Each section is identified by a toggle button in the top navigation bar of the report which can be used to show or hide the contents of the section. To toggle the show/hide state of all sections in the HTML report, press t.

Note

Although we’ve been generating separate reports in each example, you could easily create a single report for all .fif files (raw, evoked, covariance, etc) by passing pattern='*.fif'.

Editing a saved report

Saving to HTML is a write-only operation, meaning that we cannot read an .html file back as a Report object. In order to be able to edit a report once it’s no longer in-memory in an active Python session, save it as an HDF5 file instead of HTML:

report.save('report.h5', overwrite=True)
report_from_disk = mne.open_report('report.h5')
print(report_from_disk)

<Report | 2 items | MNE Report for ...data/MNE-sample-data
 ... sample_audvis-cov.fif
 ... Left Auditory
>

This allows the possibility of multiple scripts adding figures to the same report. To make this even easier, mne.Report can be used as a context manager:

with mne.open_report('report.h5') as report:
    report.add_figs_to_section(fig,
                               captions='Left Auditory',
                               section='evoked',
                               replace=True)
    report.save('report_final.html', overwrite=True)

With the context manager, the updated report is also automatically saved back to report.h5 upon leaving the block.
