Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a safe and non-invasive way to assess brain functions by using signal changes associated with brain activity. The technique has become a ubiquitous tool in basic, clinical and cognitive neuroscience. This method can measure little metabolism changes that occur in active part of the brain. We process the fMRI data to be able to find the parts of br...

Statistical graphics play a crucial role in exploratory data analysis, model checking and diagnosis. Until recently there were no formal visual methods in place for determining statistical significance of findings. This changed, when Buja et al. [2009] conceptually introduced two protocols for formal tests of visual findings. In this paper we take this a step further by comparing the lineup pro...
