Title: Statistical Signal Processing for fMRI


1
Statistical Signal Processing for fMRI
  • Douglas N. Greve
  • Mark Vangel
  • Anastasia Yendiki

2
Overview
  • First-Level Univariate Analysis
  • Signal Modeling
  • Nuisance Modeling
  • Noise Modeling
  • Hypothesis Testing
  • Correction for Multiple Comparisons
  • Cross-Subject/Higher Level Analysis
  • Lab

3
Analysis Goals
  • Quantify Neural Correlates in fMRI
  • Amplitude of Hemodynamic Response
  • Delay/Shape of Hemodynamic Response
  • Extent/Size of Activation
  • Localization of function
  • Quantify Uncertainty
  • Cross-subject (within group)
  • Cross-group eg, Normals, Clinical Populations
  • Within-subject EEG/MEG/Optical/Surgical
    Planning

4
Challenges
  • Large Noise thermal, physiological, motion
  • Small Signal delay, dispersion
  • Structural/Functional Alignment within subject
  • Intersubject Alignment
  • Copious amounts of data eg, 20 subjects, 5 runs
    per subject, 100 time points per run, 64x64x30
    volume 1.2G data points
  • More spatial voxels than time points (multiple
    comparisons problem).
  • Model Validation

5
Method
  • Correlational synchronized stimulus and
    acquistion
  • Linear/Gaussian Assumptions
  • GLM General Linear Model
  • MSE Minimum Square Error
  • LMS Least Mean Squares
  • Massively Univariate

Hemodynamic Response (BOLD)
TR (2sec)
Equilibrium (16-32sec)
Delay (1-2sec)

Typical Analysis Stream
  • Preprocessing
  • Univariate First-Level GLM Analysis
  • Univariate Higher-Level GLM Analysis
  • Multivariate Analysis
  • Packages
  • SPM Statistical Parametric Mapping
  • AFNI Analysis of Functional NeuroImages
  • FSL fMRI Software Library
  • FS-FAST FreeSurfer Functional Analysis STream

10
Preprocessing
  • k-Space reconstruction
  • Slice-Timing Correction (?)
  • Motion Correction
  • Spatial Filtering (Smoothing - FWHM)
  • Intensity Normalization
  • Temporal Filtering (or in analysis)
  • Per-run, within subject

11
Univariate First-Level Analysis
  • Per-voxel, per-subject
  • Postulate model of the observable (ie raw time
    course)
  • Signal model (eg, hemodynamic response)
  • Noise model (eg, autocorrelation function)
  • Drift (eg, mean offset, linear, quadratic)
  • General Linear Model (GLM)
  • Parameterized
  • Linear (superposition)
  • Least-mean-square estimation of parameters
  • Hypothesis Test Contrast of Parameters
  • Assemble into a map

12
Univariate High-level Analysis
  • Per-voxel, Cross-subject
  • Requires intersubject registration
  • Dave Kennedy
  • Uses information from First/Lower Levels
  • GLM to describe relationship
  • Random Effects
  • Fixed Effects

13
Multivariate Statistics
  • Cross-voxel (within map)
  • Thresholding and multiple comparisons problem
  • Gaussian Random Fields (GRF)
  • Principal Component Analysis (PCA/SVD)
  • Independent Component Analysis
  • Region-of-Interest
