    Notes
    -----
    In Chung, et al. 2006, the regression of the WLS fit needed an unbiased
    preliminary estimate of the weights and therefore the ordinary least
    squares (OLS) estimates were used. A "two pass" method was implemented:

        1. calculate OLS estimates of the data
        2. apply the OLS estimates as weights to the WLS fit of the data

    This ensured heteroscadasticity could be properly modeled for various
    types of bootstrap resampling (namely residual bootstrap).

         Whether to use the Geman McClure weighting criterion (see [1]_

    sigma : float or float array (optional)
        If 'sigma' weighting is used, we will weight the error function
        according to the background noise estimated either in aggregate over
        all directions (when a float is provided), or to an estimate of the
        noise in each diffusion-weighting direction (if an array is
        provided). If 'gmm', the Geman-Mclure M-estimator is used for
        weighting (see Notes.

    Notes
    -----
    The GemanMcClure M-estimator is described as follows [1]_ (page 1089): "The
    scale factor C affects the shape of the GMM [Geman-McClure M-estimator]
    weighting function and represents the expected spread of the residuals
    (i.e., the SD of the residuals) due to Gaussian distributed noise. The
    scale factor C can be estimated by many robust scale estimators. We used
    the median absolute deviation (MAD) estimator because it is very robust to
    outliers having a 50% breakdown point (6,7). The explicit formula for C
    using the MAD estimator is:

    .. math :: 

            C = 1.4826 x MAD = 1.4826 x median{|r1-\hat{r}|,... |r_n-\hat{r}|}

    where $\hat{r} = median{r_1, r_2, ..., r_3}$ and n is the number of data
    points. The multiplicative constant 1.4826 makes this an approximately
    unbiased estimate of scale when the error model is Gaussian."

def decompose_tensor(tensor, min_diffusivity=0):
    """ Returns eigenvalues and eigenvectors given a diffusion tensor

    Computes tensor eigen decomposition to calculate eigenvalues and
    eigenvectors (Basser et al., 1994a).

    Parameters
    ----------
    tensor : array (3, 3)
        Hermitian matrix representing a diffusion tensor.
    min_diffusivity : float
        Because negative eigenvalues are not physical and small eigenvalues,
        much smaller than the diffusion weighting, cause quite a lot of noise
        in metrics such as fa, diffusivity values smaller than
        `min_diffusivity` are replaced with `min_diffusivity`.

    Returns
    -------
    eigvals : array (3,)
        Eigenvalues from eigen decomposition of the tensor. Negative
        eigenvalues are replaced by zero. Sorted from largest to smallest.
    eigvecs : array (3, 3)
        Associated eigenvectors from eigen decomposition of the tensor.
        Eigenvectors are columnar (e.g. eigvecs[:,j] is associated with
        eigvals[j])
