Characterizing the Response of PET and fMRI Data using Multivariate Linear Models (MLM)
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a new method for characterizing brain responses in both PET and fMRI data. The aim is to capture the correlations between the scans of an experiment and a set of external predictor variables that are thought to affect the scans, such as type, intensity, or shape of stimulus response. Its main feature is a Canonical Variates Analysis (CVA) of the estimated effects of the predictors from a multivariate linear model (MLM). The advantage of this over current methods is that temporal correlations can be incorporated into the model, making the MLM method suitable for fMRI as well as PET data. Moreover, tests for the presence of any correlation, and inference about the number of canonical variates needed to capture that correlation, can be based on standard multivariate statistics, rather than simulations. When applied to an fMRI data set previously analyzed by another CVA method, the MLM method reveals a pattern of responses that is closer to that detected in an earlier non-CVA analysis.

متن کاملAn overview and some new developments in the statistical analysis of PET and fMRI data.
The first part of this paper gives an overview of a simplified approach to the statistical analysis of PET and fMRI data, including new developments and future directions. The second part outlines a new method, based on multivariate linear models (MLM), for characterising the response in PET and fMRI data, which overcomes some of the drawbacks of current methods such as SSM, SVD, PLS and CVA.
متن کاملThe Analysis of Bayesian Probit Regression of Binary and Polychotomous Response Data
The goal of this study is to introduce a statistical method regarding the analysis of specific latent data for regression analysis of the discrete data and to build a relation between a probit regression model (related to the discrete response) and normal linear regression model (related to the latent data of continuous response). This method provides precise inferences on binary and multinomia...
متن کاملData Ellipses, HE Plots and Reduced-Rank Displays for Multivariate Linear Models: SAS Software and Examples
This paper describes graphical methods for multiple-response data within the framework of the multivariate linear model (MLM), aimed at understanding what is being tested in a multivariate test, and how factor/predictor effects are expressed across multiple response measures. In particular, we describe and illustrate a collection of SAS macro programs for: (a) Data ellipses and low-rank biplots...
