[x] Goals for the OHBM Brainhack: describe what you want to achieve during this brainhack. See here.
[x] Flesh out at least 2 "good first issues": those are tasks that do not require any prior knowledge about your project, could be defined as issues in a GitHub repository, or in a shared document, cf here.
[x] Skills: list skills that would be particularly suitable for your project. We ask you to include at least one non-coding skill, cf. here.
[x] Chat channel: A link to a chat channel that will be used during the OHBM Brainhack. This can be an existing channel or a new one. We recommend using the Brainhack space on mattermost, cf. here.
[x] Video channel: Please create a video channel that will be used during the OHBM Brainhack and share it in your chat channel above. This can be an existing channel or a new one. For instance a jitsi meet room, cf. here.
You can also include information about (all optional):

Title: Confounds
Project lead: Pradeep Reddy Raamana, @raamana
**[Timezone] UTC-4
Hub: The Americas
Description: Develop a python library of methods to handle confounds in various neuroscientific analyses, esp. statistics and predictive modeling. More info and slides here: https://crossinvalidation.com/2020/03/04/conquering-confounds-and-covariates-in-machine-learning/
Link to project: https://github.com/raamana/confounds
Mattermost handle: @raamana
Goals for the OHBM Brainhack
To beef up and add various methods and statistics needed for typical analyses involving confounds:
All contributors will be authors in the paper to be published, describing this library and effort.
Good first issues:
Residualize()
with non-linear modelsDummyDeconfounding()
