If the files you are looking at end in .dtseries.nii, they are not volume files, but rather CIFTI files (there are other 2-part extensions that signify CIFTI files, but ICA-FIX should be using dtseries). This thread contains the steps for normalizing (including demeaning) along timeseries while in CIFTI format: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00444.html Similar commands apply if you are actually dealing with volume file timeseries: wb_command -volume-reduce <input> MEAN mean.nii.gz wb_command -volume-reduce <input> STDEV stdev.nii.gz wb_command -volume-math '(x - mean) / stdev' normalized.nii.gz -fixnan 0 -var x <input> -var mean mean.nii.gz -repeat -var stdev stdev.nii.gz -repeat Thank you very much for you help. > > best, > Jason > > > > > > > > > > > > UM-46JNG5RP:~ admin$ /Applications/workbench/bin_macosx64/wb_command ; > exit & > Why do you have "; exit &" on the end? > Connectome Workbench > Version: 1.0 > Qt Compiled Version: 4.8.3 > Qt Runtime Version: 4.8.3 > commit: dfd2086d37612ccf2369b85b5f5f0f5987369339 > commit date: 2014-09-09 13:23:57 -0500 > Compiler: clang2++ (/usr/local/clang-openmp-opt/llvm/build/Release/bin) > Compiler Version: > Compiled Debug: NO > Operating System: Apple OSX > > Information options: > -help print this help info > -arguments-help explain how to read the help info for subcommands > -version print version information only > -list-commands print all non-information (processing) subcommands > -all-commands-help print all non-information (processing) > subcommands and > their help info - VERY LONG > > Global options (can be added to any command): > -disable-provenance don't generate provenance info in output files > > If the first argument is not recognized, all processing commands that > start > with the argument are displayed > > > > > _______________________________________________ > HCP-Users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.humanconnectome.org/mailman/listinfo/hcp-users > _______________________________________________ HCP-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.humanconnectome.org/mailman/listinfo/hcp-users
