pyriemann.transfer.TLCenter¶
- class pyriemann.transfer.TLCenter(target_domain, metric='riemann')¶
Centering for transfer learning.
For inputs in matrix manifold, it recenters the matrices from each domain to the identity matrix on manifold, ie it makes the mean of the matrices of each domain become the identity [1]. This operation corresponds to a whitening when the matrices represent the spatial covariance matrices of multivariate signals.
For inputs in tangent space, it recenters the tangent vectors from each domain to the origin of tangent space, ie it makes the mean of the vectors of each domain become zero.
Note
Using .fit() and then .transform() will give different results than .fit_transform(). In fact, .fit_transform() should be applied on the training set (target and source domains), and .transform() on the target domain of the test set.
- Parameters:
- target_domainstr
Domain to consider as target in
transform()
function:if not empty,
transform()
recenters matrices to the specified target domain;else,
transform()
recenters matrices to the last fitted domain.
- metricstr, default=”riemann”
For inputs in manifold, metric used for mean estimation. For the list of supported metrics, see
pyriemann.utils.mean.mean_covariance()
. Note, however, that only when using the “riemann” metric that we are ensured to re-center the matrices precisely to the identity.
- Attributes:
- centers_dict
Dictionary with key=domain_name and value=domain_center.
Notes
Added in version 0.4.
Changed in version 0.8: Add support for tangent space centering.

- __init__(target_domain, metric='riemann')¶
Init
- fit(X, y_enc, sample_weight=None)¶
Fit TLCenter.
For each domain, it calculates the mean of matrices or vectors of this domain.
- Parameters:
- Xndarray, shape (n_matrices, n_channels, n_channels) or shape (n_vectors, n_ts)
Set of SPD matrices or tangent vectors.
- y_encndarray, shape (n_matrices,) or shape (n_vectors,)
Extended labels for each matrix or vector.
- sample_weightNone | ndarray, shape (n_matrices,) or shape (n_vectors,), default=None
Weights for each matrix or vector. If None, it uses equal weights.
- Returns:
- selfTLCenter instance
The TLCenter instance.
- fit_transform(X, y_enc, sample_weight=None)¶
Fit TLCenter and then center each domain.
For each domain, it calculates the mean of matrices or vectors of this domain, and then recenters them to identity matrix or to null vector.
Note
This method is designed for using at training time. The output for .fit_transform() will be different than using .fit() and .transform() separately.
- Parameters:
- Xndarray, shape (n_matrices, n_channels, n_channels) or shape (n_vectors, n_ts)
Set of SPD matrices or tangent vectors.
- y_encndarray, shape (n_matrices,) or shape (n_vectors,)
Extended labels for each matrix or vector.
- sample_weightNone | ndarray, shape (n_matrices,) or shape (n_vectors,), default=None
Weights for each matrix or vector. If None, it uses equal weights.
- Returns:
- X_newndarray, shape (n_matrices, n_channels, n_channels) or shape (n_vectors, n_ts)
Set of centered SPD matrices or tangent vectors in each domain.
- get_metadata_routing()¶
Get metadata routing of this object.
Please check User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.
- Returns:
- routingMetadataRequest
A
MetadataRequest
encapsulating routing information.
- get_params(deep=True)¶
Get parameters for this estimator.
- Parameters:
- deepbool, default=True
If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.
- Returns:
- paramsdict
Parameter names mapped to their values.
- property recenter_¶
Warning
DEPRECATED: Attribute recenter_ is deprecated and will be removed in 0.10.0; please use centers_.
- set_fit_request(*, sample_weight: bool | None | str = '$UNCHANGED$', y_enc: bool | None | str = '$UNCHANGED$') TLCenter ¶
Request metadata passed to the
fit
method.Note that this method is only relevant if
enable_metadata_routing=True
(seesklearn.set_config()
). Please see User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.The options for each parameter are:
True
: metadata is requested, and passed tofit
if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.False
: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it tofit
.None
: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.str
: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.
The default (
sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED
) retains the existing request. This allows you to change the request for some parameters and not others.Added in version 1.3.
Note
This method is only relevant if this estimator is used as a sub-estimator of a meta-estimator, e.g. used inside a
Pipeline
. Otherwise it has no effect.- Parameters:
- sample_weightstr, True, False, or None, default=sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED
Metadata routing for
sample_weight
parameter infit
.- y_encstr, True, False, or None, default=sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED
Metadata routing for
y_enc
parameter infit
.
- Returns:
- selfobject
The updated object.
- set_output(*, transform=None)¶
Set output container.
See Introducing the set_output API for an example on how to use the API.
- Parameters:
- transform{“default”, “pandas”, “polars”}, default=None
Configure output of transform and fit_transform.
“default”: Default output format of a transformer
“pandas”: DataFrame output
“polars”: Polars output
None: Transform configuration is unchanged
Added in version 1.4: “polars” option was added.
- Returns:
- selfestimator instance
Estimator instance.
- set_params(**params)¶
Set the parameters of this estimator.
The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as
Pipeline
). The latter have parameters of the form<component>__<parameter>
so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.- Parameters:
- **paramsdict
Estimator parameters.
- Returns:
- selfestimator instance
Estimator instance.
- transform(X)¶
Center in the target domain.
Note
This method is designed for using at test time, recentering all inputs in target domain, or in the last fitted domain.
- Parameters:
- Xndarray, shape (n_matrices, n_channels, n_channels) or shape (n_vectors, n_ts)
Set of SPD matrices or tangent vectors.
- Returns:
- X_newndarray, shape (n_matrices, n_classes) or shape (n_vectors, n_ts)
Set of centered SPD matrices or tangent vectors in target domain.
