Coordinate - Based Meta - Analysis of fMRI Studies with R
This paper outlines how to conduct a simple meta-analysis of neuroimaging foci of activation in R. In particular, the first part of this paper reviews the nature of fMRI data, and presents a brief overview of the existing packages that can be used to analyze fMRI data in R. The second part illustrates how to handle fMRI data by showing how to visualize the results of different neuroimaging stud...
متن کاملCluster-based analysis of FMRI data.
We propose a method for the statistical analysis of fMRI data that tests cluster units rather than voxel units for activation. The advantages of this analysis over previous ones are both conceptual and statistical. Recognizing that the fundamental units of interest are the spatially contiguous clusters of voxels that are activated together, we set out to approximate these cluster units from the...
متن کاملCluster Validity Through Graph-based Boundary Analysis
Gaining confidence that a clustering algorithm has produced meaningful results and not an accident of its usually heuristic optimization is central to data mining. This is the issue of cluster validity. We propose here a method by which proximity graphs are used to effectively detect border points and measure the margin between clusters. With analysis of boundary situation, we design a framewor...
متن کاملThe coordinate-based meta-analysis of neuroimaging data.
Neuroimaging meta-analysis is an area of growing interest in statistics. The special characteristics of neuroimaging data render classical meta-analysis methods inapplicable and therefore new methods have been developed. We review existing methodologies, explaining the benefits and drawbacks of each. A demonstration on a real dataset of emotion studies is included. We discuss some still-open pr...
متن کاملCluster validity analysis using subsampling
I n t r o d u c t i o n The word "clustering" (unsupervised classification) refers to methods of grouping objects based on some similarity measure between them. Clustering algorithms can be classified into four classes, namely Partitional, Hierarchical, Density-based and Grid-based [8]. Each of these classes has subclasses and different corresponding approaches, e.g., conceptual, fuzzy, selforg...
