What specific use for those did you have in mind?<br></blockquote><div><br>very often in neuroimaging studies, you derive multiple features from the same place (voxel or vertex). it would be interesting to see if the combination of features from a  given location worked better compared to treating each of these features independently.<br>

&gt;    hi,<br>
&gt;    i have a set of features that share geometrical/spatial properties. is<br>
&gt;    there a way i can tell pymvpa that these features are tied together?<br>
&gt;    for example, i might get curvature and cortical thickness from a single<br>
&gt;    vertex as features, but currently i don&#39;t encode the fact that these<br>
&gt;    two features are related. the ds is just a nsubj x nfeat matrix.<br>
&gt;    and related to this question, are there specific classifiers that can<br>
&gt;    take advantage of this relation?<br>
&gt;    and to extend it beyond simple grouping based on location, can i<br>
&gt;    include neighborhood relations on surfaces  or to generalize<br>
&gt;    (connectivity on graphs).<br>
