Stimulus-sets Replicate existing stimuli Adjusting resolution Create color stimuli Method 1: Create RGB arrays directly Method 2: Use masks for multi-color stimuli Method 3: Color stimuli with transparency Method 4: Using color space conversions Specifying chromaticities Color specification reference Choosing the right method Create stimuli spanning a parameter space Create a stimspace in stimupy Example: 1D stimspace for Gabors Example: 2D stimspace for Gabors Compose stimuli from components Method 1: Direct composition functions Method 2: Simple array operations Method 3: Mask-based composition More complex example: Dartboard Using helper functions for mask-based composition Choosing the right method General workflow
