Hi Tianwen,

I'll give you the Matlab formula, as the bash formula in the pipeline is
not as easy to follow:

mvm = load('Movement_Regressors.txt');
for i=1:6
  a = mvm(:,i);
  d = [a(2)-a(1);(a(3:end)-a(1:end-2))/2;a(end)-a(end-1)]
  matlabD(:,i) = d;
end


You can compare matlabD to mvm(:,7:12).

Peace,

Matt.
