Hi, 
C is a categorial variable. I think logistic regression is what I am looking for. Thank you very much. 
Best,

You may want to take a look at the following example: nilearn.github.io/auto_examples/decoding/plot_haxby_anova_svm.html#example-decoding-plot-haxby-anova-svm-py (just replace the SVM with a logistic regression).
