'''
Working with categorical data
=============================

use of dummy variables, group statistics, within and between statistics
examples for efficient matrix algebra

dummy versions require that the number of unique groups or categories is not too large
group statistics with scipy.ndimage can handle large number of observations and groups
scipy.ndimage stats is missing count

new: np.bincount can also be used for calculating values per label
