Re: [HCP-Users] Phase Encoding left-to-right and right-to-left

[Harms, Michael]

Ok, but I thought we were talking about correlations here?  Another reason for Joelle to be explicit about what she is wanting to do. --  Michael Harms, Ph.D. ----------------------------------------------------------- Conte Center for the Neuroscience of Mental Disorders Washington University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry, Box 8134 660 South Euclid Ave. Tel: 314-747-6173 St. Louis, MO  63110 Email: mha...@wustl.edu From: Stephen Smith <st...@fmrib.ox.ac.uk> Date: Wednesday, November 25, 2015 11:34 AM To: "Harms, Michael" <mha...@wustl.edu> Cc: Timothy Coalson <tsc...@mst.edu>, Greg Burgess <gcburg...@gmail.com>, "Elam, Jennifer" <e...@wustl.edu>, "hcp-users@humanconnectome.org" <hcp-users@humanconnectome.org> Subject: Re: [HCP-Users] Phase Encoding left-to-right and right-to-left Hi Michael - for raw covariances - summing covariances is equivalent to temp concat first.

In the context of dense connectomes, generating a dense connectome per run is a different sort of beast.  You can do it (I've done it) using -cifti-correlation and then average with -cifti-average. But to my knowledge, no one has looked at whether there is a small reproducibility advantage to that approach as well with dense connectomes, which is why I think that most subject specific dense connectomes have probably been created via the 'concat' approach outlined on the wiki. cheers, -MH --  Michael Harms, Ph.D. ----------------------------------------------------------- Conte Center for the Neuroscience of Mental Disorders Washington University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry, Box 8134 660 South Euclid Ave.Tel: 314-747-6173 St. Louis, MO  63110Email: mha...@wustl.edu From: Timothy Coalson <tsc...@mst.edu> Date: Tuesday, November 24, 2015 4:23 PM To: Greg Burgess <gcburg...@gmail.com> Cc: "Elam, Jennifer" <e...@wustl.edu>, "hcp-users@humanconnectome.org" <hcp-users@humanconnectome.org> Subject: Re: [HCP-Users] Phase Encoding left-to-right and right-to-left If you are using -cifti-correlation, there is a -mem-limit option for this purpose, so there isn't a required minimum memory to do it (even in matlab where everything has to be in memory, the 90k x 4.8k timeseries input pales in comparison to the 90k x 90k output).  If you are doing everything in matlab, then the averaging of two 90k x 90k dconns is going to require more memory than any reasonable concatenated correlation. The -cifti-average command should use almost no memory regardless of file size, as long as you don't overwrite one of the inputs with the output.

The idea was that computing correlations between timeseries with 4800 time points will take four times as much RAM as using only 1200 time points. For folks with limited RAM, averaging the correlation estimates may be a more feasible option. --Greg ____________________________________________________________________ Greg Burgess, Ph.D. Staff Scientist, Human Connectome Project Washington University School of Medicine Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology Phone: 314-362-7864 Email: gburg...@wustl.edu > On Nov 24, 2015, at 1:08 PM, Stephen Smith <st...@fmrib.ox.ac.uk> wrote: > > I think maybe we need to be explicit about exactly what we're talking about averaging? > Cheers. > > -------------------- > Stephen M.
