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.

http://www.picsl.upenn.edu/ANTS/

Software package designed to enable researchers with advanced tools for brain and image mapping. Many of the ANTS registration tools are diffeomorphic*, but deformation (elastic and BSpline) transformations are available. Unique components of ANTS include multivariate similarity metrics, landmark guidance, the ability to use label images to guide the mapping and both greedy and space-time optimal implementations of diffeomorphisms. The symmetric normalization (SyN) strategy is a part of the ANTS toolkit as is directly manipulated free form deformation (DMFFD). *Diffeomorphism: a differentiable map with differentiable inverse. In general, these maps are generated by integrating a time-dependent velocity field. ANTS Applications: * Gray matter morphometry based on the jacobian and/or cortical thickness. * Group and single-subject optimal templates. * Multivariate DT + T1 brain templates and group studies. * Longitudinal brain mapping -- special similarity metric options. * Neonatal and pediatric brain segmentation. * Pediatric brain mapping. * T1 brain mapping guided by tractography and connectivity. * Diffusion tensor registration based on scalar or connectivity data. * Brain mapping in the presence of lesions. * Lung and pulmonary tree registration. * User-guided hippocampus labeling, also of sub-fields. * Group studies and statistical analysis of cortical thickness, white matter volume, diffusion tensor-derived metrics such as fractional anisotropy and mean diffusion.

Portal and tools for sharing and editing neurophysiological and behavioral data for brain-machine interface research. Users can search for existing data or login with their Google, Facebook, or Twitter account and upload new data. Their main focus is on supporting brain-machine interface research, so we encourage users to not just provide recordings of brain activity data, but also information about stimuli, etc., so that statistical relationships can be found between stimuli and/or subject behavior and brain activity. The Matlab tools are for writing, reading, and converting Neuroshare files, the common file format. A free, open source desktop tool for editing neurophysiological data for brain-machine interface research is also available: https://github.com/ATR-DNI/BrainLiner Since data formats aren''''t standardized between programs and researchers, data and analysis programs for data cannot be easily shared. Neuroshare was selected as the common file format. Neuroshare can contain several types of neurophysiological data because of its high flexibility, including analog time-series data and neuronal spike timing. Some applications have plug-ins or libraries available that can read Neuroshare format files, thus making Neuroshare somewhat readily usable. Neuroshare can contain several types of neurophysiological data, but there were no easy tools to convert data into the Neuroshare format, so they made and are providing a Neuroshare Converter Library and Simple Converter using the library. In future work they will make and provide many more useful tools for data sharing. Shared experiments include: EMG signal, Takemiya Exp, Reconstruct (Visual image reconstruction from human brain activity using a combination of multi-scale local image decoders), SPIKE data, Speech Imagery Dataset (Single-trial classification of vowel speech imagery using common spatial patterns), Functional Multineuron Calcium Imaging (fMCI), Rock-paper-scissors (The data was obtained from subject while he make finger-form of rock/paper/scissors).

A grassroots initiative dedicated to accelerating the scientific community''''s understanding of the neural basis of ADHD through the implementation of open data-sharing and discovery-based science. They believe that a community-wide effort focused on advancing functional and structural imaging examinations of the developing brain will accelerate the rate at which neuroscience can inform clinical practice. The ADHD-200 Global Competition invited participants to develop diagnostic classification tools for ADHD diagnosis based on functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Applying their tools, participants provided diagnostic labels for previously unlabeled datasets. The competition assessed diagnostic accuracy of each submission and invited research papers describing novel, neuroscientific ideas related to ADHD diagnosis. Twenty-one international teams, from a mix of disciplines, including statistics, mathematics, and computer science, submitted diagnostic labels, with some trying their hand at imaging analysis and psychiatric diagnosis for the first time. The data for the competition was provided by the ADHD-200 Consortium. Consortium members from institutions around the world provided de-identified, HIPAA compliant imaging datasets from almost 800 children with and without ADHD. A phenotypic file including all of the test set subjects and their diagnostic codes can be downloaded. Winner is presented. The ADHD-200 consortium included: * Brown University, Providence, RI, USA (Brown) * The Kennedy Krieger Institute, Baltimore, MD, USA (KKI) * The Donders Institute, Nijmegen, The Netherlands (NeuroImage) * New York University Medical Center, New York, NY, USA (NYU) * Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR, USA (OHSU) * Peking University, Beijing, P.R.China (Peking 1-3) * The University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA (Pittsburgh) * Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, MO, USA (WashU)

A flexible software platform for distributed processing, analysis, exchange and visualization of brain imaging data. The expected result is a middleware platform that will render the processing environment (hardware, operating systems, storage servers, etc...) transparent to a remote user. Interaction with a standard web browser allows application of complex algorithm pipelines to large datasets stored at remote locations using a mixture of network available resources such as small clusters, neuroimaging tools and databases as well as Compute Canada's High Performance Computing Centers (HPC). Though the focus of CBRAIN is providing tools for use by brain imaging researchers, the platform is generalizable to other imaging domains, such as radiology, surgical planning and heart imaging, with profound consequences for Canadian medical research. CBRAIN expanded its concept to include international partners in the US, Germany and Korea. As of December 2010, GBRAIN has made significant progress with the original three partners and has developed new partners in Singapore, China, India, and Latin America. CBRAIN is currently deployed on 6 Compute Canada HPC clusters, one German HPC cluster and 3 clusters local to McGill University Campus, totaling more than 80,000 potential CPU cores.

http://bric.unc.edu/ideagroup/free-softwares/ABSORB/

This software package implements an algorithm for effective groupwise registration. The required input is a set of 3D MR intensity images (in Analyze format with paired .hdr and .img files) with a text file (.txt) listing all header file (.hdr) names. The output is the set of registered images together with the corresponding dense deformation fields. This software has been tested on Windows XP (32-bit) and Linux (64-bit, kernel version 2.6.18-194.el5). The images should be pre-processed before applying ABSORB: * All brain MR images used as inputs to ABSORB should be in the same situation (e.g., skull-stripped or not, cerebellum removed or not, etc.). * The input images should be in Analyze format with paired header and image files. This software was developed in IDEA group in UNC-Chapel Hill.

Suite of programs developed for fMRI analysis in a Virtual Pipeline Laboratory facilitates combining program modules from different software packages into processing pipelines to create analysis solutions which are not possible with a single software package alone. Current pipelines include fMRI analysis, statistical testing based on randomization methods and fractal spectral analysis. Pipelines are continually being added. The software is mostly written in C. This fMRI analysis package supports batch processing and comprises the following general functions at the first level of individual image analysis: movement correction (interpolation and regression), time series modeling, data resampling in the wavelet domain, hypothesis testing at voxel and cluster levels. Additionally, there is code for second level analysis - group and factorial or ANOVA mapping - after co-registration of voxel statistic maps from individual images in a standard space. The main point of difference from other fMRI analysis packages is the emphasis throughout on the use of data resampling (permutation or randomization) as a basis for inference on individual, group and factorial test statistics at voxel and cluster levels of resolution.
