"e.g. some super-ordinate category (e.g. animate-vs-inanimate) you would like to cross-validate not across functional runs BUT across sub-ordinate stimuli categories (e.g. train on humans/reptiles/shoes/scissors to discriminate animacy and cross-validate into bugs/houses, then continue with another pair to take out)."
BTW, this exactly what I would like to do but I still don't figure out how to leave out the test trials from the training trials, so they don't get classified into themselves.
