It allows researchers to analyze large MEG and EEG dataset using high-performance computing facilities, and then build, visualize, and analyze normative models of brain dynamics across individuals.

🚀 Features
- Compatibility with MNE-Python, PCNToolkit, SpecParam libraries
- Normative modeling of oscillatory brain activity
- Using high performance capabilities on SLURM clusters
- EEG and MEG support with BIDS integration
- Ready for reproducible deployment with Docker
📦 Installation
Option 1: From PyPI (recommended)
This is the easiest way to get started if you just want to use the toolbox.
conda create --channel=conda-forge --strict-channel-priority --name mne python=3.12 mne
conda activate mne
pip install meganorm
Option 2: Installl from the source files
# 1. Create and activate environment
conda create --channel=conda-forge --strict-channel-priority --name mne python=3.12 mne
conda activate mne
# 2. Clone and install MEGaNorm
git clone https://github.com/ML4PNP/MEGaNorm.git
cd MEGaNorm/
pip install .
Option 3: Using Docker
We provide a pre-configured Docker environment with Jupyter Lab. You can either build the image locally or pull the latest version from Docker Hub.
Option A: Build the image locally
make build
make run
Option B: Pull the latest image from Docker Hub
make pull
make run
This mounts:
notebooks/→ for saving Jupyter notebooksresults/→ for analysis outputsdata/→ for raw/processed EEG/MEG data
Jupyter will open in your browser on http://localhost:8888
