Many functional imaging studies match their data to a brain template from the Monteal Neurological Institute (MNI). It is common for such studies to report activation coordinates and estimated Brodmann areas (BAs) in terms of the 1988 atlas of Talairach and Tournoux. This can be problematic, as the brains in the Talairach atlas and MNI template differ significantly in shape and size. This poste...

Abstract We consider a multivariate multisample testing hypothesis, which is one of the most common types of statistical problems. Recent progress in computerized measurement technology has permitted the accumulation of multivariate data. The analysis of multivariate data is particularly important in studies of biological data, image data, and functional data. For the multivariate data, it is i...
