Full Changelog: v0.10...v0.11

v0.10

Major enhancements

• We now have experimental support for fNIRS data (SNIRF format). This is still super fresh, and the respective BIDS enhancement proposal (BEP) has not yet been finalized & accepted into the standard. However, we’re excitied to be able to do this first step towards fNIRS support!
• Numerous improvements have been added to enhance our support for various coordinate frames, including those that are not yet supported by MNE-BIDS. These changes are mostly relevant to iEEG users. Please see the detailed list of changes below.
• We have added support for storing and reading multiple anatomical landmarks (“fiducials”) for the same participant. This makes it possible, for example, to store different sets of landmarks for each recording session.
  It’s now possible to store Neuroscan (CNT) files with MNE-BIDS.

Full Changelog: v0.9...v0.10

v0.9

Notable changes

• 🧠 Compatibility with MNE-Python 0.24!
• 👻 Anonymize an entire BIDS dataset via mne_bids.anonymize_dataset!
• 🏝 Conveniently turn a path into a BIDSPath via
  get_bids_path_from_fname!
• 🏎 :func:mne_bids.stats.count_events and mne_bids.BIDSPath.match
  are operating much faster now!
• 🔍 write_raw_bids now stores the names of the input files in the
  source column of *_scans.tsv, making it easier for you to
  go back to the source should you ever need to!

v0.8

Notable changes

• You can now write preloaded and potentially modified data with
  mne_bids.write_raw_bids by passing allow_preload=True. This is
  a first step towards supporting derivative files.
• mne_bids.BIDSPath now has property getters and setters for all BIDS
  entities. What this means is that you can now do things like
  bids_path.subject = '01' instead of bids_path.update(subject='01').
• We now support Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) data.
• The way we handle anatomical landmarks was greatly revamped to ensure we're
  always using the correct coordinate systems. A new function,
  mne_bids.get_anat_landmarks, helps with extracting fiducial points from
  anatomical scans.
• When creating a BIDS dataset from FIFF files on macOS and Linux, MNE-BIDS
  can now optionally generate symbolic links to the original files instead of
  copies. Simply pass symlink=True to
  mne_bids.write_raw_bids. This can massively reduce the storage space
  requirements.
