    subject : str | None
        Name of the subject the source estimate(s) is (are) from.
        It is good practice to set this attribute to avoid combining
        incompatible labels and SourceEstimates (e.g., ones from other
        subjects). Note that due to file specification limitations, the
        subject name isn't saved to or loaded from files written to disk.

    Returns
    -------
    stc : SourceEstimate | VectorSourceEstimate | VolSourceEstimate | MixedSourceEstimate
        The source estimate object loaded from file.

    Notes
    -----
     - for volume source estimates, ``fname`` should provide the path to a
       single file named '*-vl.stc` or '*-vol.stc'
     - for surface source estimates, ``fname`` should either provide the
       path to the file corresponding to a single hemisphere ('*-lh.stc',
       '*-rh.stc') or only specify the asterisk part in these patterns. In any
       case, the function expects files for both hemisphere with names
       following this pattern.
     - for vector surface source estimates, only HDF5 files are supported.
     - for mixed source estimates, only HDF5 files are supported.
     - for single time point .w files, ``fname`` should follow the same
       pattern as for surface estimates, except that files are named
       '*-lh.w' and '*-rh.w'.

    Parameters
    ----------

        The data in source space. The data can either be a single array or
        a tuple with two arrays: "kernel" shape (n_vertices, n_sensors) and
        "sens_data" shape (n_sensors, n_times). In this case, the source
        space data corresponds to "numpy.dot(kernel, sens_data)".
    vertices : array | list of two arrays
        Vertex numbers corresponding to the data.
    tmin : float
        Time point of the first sample in data.
    tstep : float
        Time step between successive samples in data.
    subject : str | None
        The subject name. While not necessary, it is safer to set the
        subject parameter to avoid analysis errors.
    verbose : bool, str, int, or None
        If not None, override default verbose level (see :func:`mne.verbose`

    Attributes
    ----------
    subject : str | None
        The subject name.
    times : array of shape (n_times,)
        The time vector.
    vertices : array or list of arrays of shape (n_dipoles,)
        The indices of the dipoles in the different source spaces. Can
        be an array if there is only one source space (e.g., for volumes).
    data : array of shape (n_dipoles, n_times)
        The data in source space.
    shape : tuple
        The shape of the data. A tuple of int (n_dipoles, n_times).

              and use the scaled and sign-flipped first right-singular vector
              as the label time course. The scaling is performed such that the

              per-vertex time course power within the label. The sign of the
              resulting time course is adjusted by multiplying it with
              "sign(dot(u, flip))" where u is the first left-singular vector,
              and flip is a sing-flip vector based on the vertex normals. This

        surf : str
            The surface to use for Euclidean distance center of mass
            finding. The default here is "sphere", which finds the center
            of mass on the spherical surface to help avoid potential issues

    """Extract label time course for lists of labels and source estimates.

    This function will extract one time course for each label and source
    estimate. The way the time courses are extracted depends on the mode
    parameter.

    Valid values for mode are:

        - 'mean': Average within each label.
        - 'mean_flip': Average within each label with sign flip depending
          on source orientation.
        - 'pca_flip': Apply an SVD to the time courses within each label
          and use the scaled and sign-flipped first right-singular vector
          as the label time course. The scaling is performed such that the
          power of the label time course is the same as the average
          per-vertex time course power within the label. The sign of the
          resulting time course is adjusted by multiplying it with
          "sign(dot(u, flip))" where u is the first left-singular vector,
          and flip is a sing-flip vector based on the vertex normals. This
          procedure assures that the phase does not randomly change by 180
          degrees from one stc to the next.
        - 'max': Max value within each label.


    Parameters
    ----------
    stcs : SourceEstimate | list (or generator) of SourceEstimate
        The source estimates from which to extract the time course.
    labels : Label | BiHemiLabel | list of Label or BiHemiLabel
        The labels for which to extract the time course.
    src : list
        Source spaces for left and right hemisphere.
    mode : str
        Extraction mode, see explanation above.
    allow_empty : bool
        Instead of emitting an error, return all-zero time courses for labels
        that do not have any vertices in the source estimate.
    return_generator : bool
        If True, a generator instead of a list is returned.
    verbose : bool, str, int, or None
        If not None, override default verbose level (see :func:`mne.verbose`
        and :ref:`Logging documentation <tut_logging>` for more).
