http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/optseq/

Software tool for automatically scheduling events for rapid-presentation event-related (RPER) fMRI experiments (the schedule is the order and timing of events). Events in RPER are presented closely enough in time that their hemodynamic responses will overlap. This requires that the onset times of the events be jittered in order to remove the overlap from the estimate of the hemodynamic response. RPER is highly resistant to habituation, expectation, and set because the subject does not know when the next stimulus will appear or which stimulus type it will be.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on September 2, 2022. Software that is an open-source distribution of a new method for constructing compact statistical point-based models of ensembles of similar shapes that does not rely on any specific surface parameterization. The method requires very little preprocessing or parameter tuning, and is applicable to a wide range of shape analysis problems, including nonmanifold surfaces and objects of arbitrary topology. The proposed correspondence point optimization uses an entropy-based minimization that balances the simplicity of the model (compactness) with the accuracy of the surface representations. The ShapeWorks software includes tools for preprocessing data, computing point-based shape models, and visualizing the results.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/multimpute/

A software toolkit that performs multiple imputation for group level, single sample t-tests. Whole brain group level statistic maps from fMRI rarely cover the entire brain as a result of missing data. Missingness between subjects in fMRI datasets can result from susceptibility artifacts, bounding box (acquisition parameters), and small differences in post-normalized morphology. The toolkit consists of several interactive command line scripts that guide the user to map the spatial distribution of missing data across contrast images, calculate spatial neighborhood averages that help impute values, perform conventional and multiple imputed t-statistics, save the results to brain maps, and create result tables. The toolkit contains an instruction manual (pdf), two Matlab scripts and one R-Statistics script, which depend on functions defined in the popular SPM toolbox and functions defined in the MICE package for (R).

This toolbox is an EEGLAB plugin for performing Measure Projection Analysis. Measure Projection Analysis (MPA) is a novel probabilistic multi-subject inference method that overcomes EEG Independent Component (IC) clustering issues by abandoning the notion of distinct IC clusters. Instead, it searches voxel by voxel for brain regions having event-related IC process dynamics that exhibit statistically significant consistency across subjects and/or sessions as quantified by the values of various EEG measures. Local-mean EEG measure values are then assigned to all such locations based on a probabilistic model of IC localization error and inter-subject anatomical and functional differences.

http://neuro.debian.net/pkgs/cmtk.html

A software toolkit for computational morphometry of biomedical images, CMTK comprises a set of command line tools and a back-end general-purpose library for processing and I/O. The command line tools primarily provide the following functionality: registration (affine and nonrigid; single and multi-channel; pairwise and groupwise), image correction (MR bias field estimation; interleaved image artifact correction; EPI unwarping), processing (filters; combination of segmentations via voting and STAPLE; shape-based averaging), statistics (t-tests; general linear model). CMTK is implemented in C++ with parallel processing using POSIX Threads (SMP), OpenMP (SMP), Grand Central Dispatch (SMP), and CUDA (GPU). Supported file formats include Analyze (r/w), NIFTI (r/w), Nrrd (r/w), DICOM (read), BioRad (read). Data exchange with other toolkits, such as ITK, FSL, AFNI, SPM, etc. is thus easily accomplished.

So far there is a lack for Random Field Theory (RFT) -based multiple comparison correction for surfaces generated in Freesurfer software package. This set of Matlab-based functions can be used for that purpose. They are based on Worsley?s SurfStat toolbox. You also need to have installed Freesurfer software package and included the Freesurfer?s matlab subdirectory in the Matlab?s search path. In addition, this tool implements the RFT-FDR hierarchical correction that can be used for optimizing the amount of smoothing in cortical thickness analyses (Neuroimage 52, 158-171).

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/ukftractography/

Software framework which uses an unscented Kalman filter for performing tractography. At each point on the fiber the most consistent direction is found as a mixture of previous estimates and of the local model. It is very easy to expand the framework and to implement new fiber representations for it. Currently it is possible to tract fibers using two different 1-, 2-, or 3-tensor methods. Both methods use a mixture of Gaussian tensors. One limits the diffusion ellipsoids to a cylindrical shape (the second and third eigenvalue are assumed to be identical) and the other one uses a full tensor representation. The project is written in C++. It could be used both as a Slicer3 module and as a standalone commandline application.
