Hey Matt, thank you very much for your email. I am trying to create cifti timeseries from non hcp data (i.e. our own data). The reason I want to do that is that I want to use the connectome workbench -cifti-correlation-gradient command to generate a functional connectivity gradient map and the command requires the format.
I have so far attempted to generate the cifti timeries with -cifti-create-dense-timeseries using .metric files as metric inputs (created from my 4D nifti with -metric-convert) but when I use this cifti timeseries as input to -cifti-correlation-gradient the process keeps running indefinitely, neither crashing nor finishing (after about 24h). That's why I moved on to the above mentioned example that requires .shape.gii files So I guess I have to extend my question: 1) Do I need the .shape.gii file to generate a cifti timeseries from a 4D nii to use as input to -cifti-correlation-gradient 2) If so, how would I go about doing that? 3) If not, what would be the correct command to run -cifti-correlation-gradient Thanks a lot, Sebastian On 31 July 2013 22:34, Glasser, Matthew <[email protected]> wrote: > While I'm happy to explain how to do this, what is the reason you need > to recreate this file?
