Hi Doug,

I couldn't find a -no-whiten option in the usage for either selxavg-sess or 
selxavg3-sess. In any case, when I run the selxavg command, the screen output 
says: 
INFO: WhitenFlag = 0 (so I guess it's not whitening?). 

I also looked for spikes or artifacts as you suggested and the main thing that 
struck me is that for the two subjects for whom I get this error, the min value 
in the 4D vol is 0 whereas for the 2 subjects that don't have this error, the 
min(vol) is non-zero (negative values in one subject and non-zero, positive for 
the other). Otherwise the amplitude profiles look pretty similar for all 
subjects. Could this be a divide by zero error somewhere in selxavg? And is 
there some way around it?

Thanks in advance,
Leila

Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] selxavg error

hmmm, something is going wrong with the whitening. Can you try it without 
whitening? Also, look in the 4d volume for some artifact (eg, a spike). This 
might account for it.
