Hi all,

I'm trying to use -cifti-resample and I'm having a hard time understanding
what the arguments are. After specifying the input and template cifti
files, there are options for left-spheres, right-spheres, and
cerebellum-spheres. How do I use these options? The help text says to
provide "a sphere with the same mesh as the current left/right surface" and
"a sphere with the new left/right mesh that is in register with the current
sphere" - what does this mean, and how are these spheres related to the
surfaces in the input and template files? Do these options override the
surface information in the template? What is cerebellum-spheres, since I
thought that subcortical areas are stored as volumes rather than surfaces?

My end goal is to downsample the input surface to ~10k nodes/hemisphere
(for input to a very computationally-intensive model), so following the
advice from this previous thread
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00039.html I
used freesurfer to decimate the left and right hemisphere 32k spheres. FYI
this required manually editing the GIFTI files to have version "1.0"
instead of "1", otherwise freesurfer chokes on reading them. Now I'm trying
to figure out the next step - should I be creating a new CIFTI template
using these decimated spheres, or can I use the left/right spheres options?

Thanks!
Chris Baldassano
