Tract-based spatial statistics: voxelwise analysis of multi-subject diffusion data.

TL;DR: TBSS aims to improve the sensitivity, objectivity and interpretability of analysis of multi-subject diffusion imaging studies by solving the question of how to align FA images from multiple subjects in a way that allows for valid conclusions to be drawn from the subsequent voxelwise analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonparametric permutation tests for functional neuroimaging: A primer with examples

TL;DR: The standard nonparametric randomization and permutation testing ideas are developed at an accessible level, using practical examples from functional neuroimaging, and the extensions for multiple comparisons described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thresholding of statistical maps in functional neuroimaging using the false discovery rate.

TL;DR: This paper introduces to the neuroscience literature statistical procedures for controlling the false discovery rate (FDR) and demonstrates this approach using both simulations and functional magnetic resonance imaging data from two simple experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Threshold-free cluster enhancement: Addressing problems of smoothing, threshold dependence and localisation in cluster inference

TL;DR: A new method is proposed which attempts to keep the sensitivity benefits of cluster-based thresholding (and indeed the general concept of "clusters" of signal), while avoiding (or at least minimising) these problems, and is referred to as "threshold-free cluster enhancement" (TFCE).
Journal ArticleDOI

Cluster failure: Why fMRI inferences for spatial extent have inflated false-positive rates

TL;DR: It is found that the most common software packages for fMRI analysis (SPM, FSL, AFNI) can result in false-positive rates of up to 70%.
