[pymvpa] search-light vs. ROI analysis: significance puzzle

[Vadim Axel]

Indeed, very similar - I only make it not random, but rather sequentially
iterating over all brain. In such a way each voxels participates in roughly
the same amount of lights. I could not figure out from paper, Malin, in how
many lights the voxel should participate in order to achieve satisfactory
performance?
