Hi Steve,

What about the correction for temporal autocorrelation?

Matt.

Subject: Re: [HCP-Users] netmats in HCP

Hi - one thing is that we estimate (z versions of) netmats separately for each 15min run and then average the 4 netmats to give a single netmat per subject.
Cheers.

Hi Timothy,

Thank you for pointing that out. I typed that wrong but I used the correct transformation in matlab. As I said my transformed z scores are actually almost perfectly linearly correlated with HCP netmats, though the latter is much larger. I want to understand why the latter is larger and why the two are not exactly correlated.

Thanks,
Cherry

A quick possibility: if you have pasted in the formula you used, I see an order of operations problem: .5*ln(1+r)-ln(1-r) means (.5*ln(1+r))-ln(1-r), where the usual formula is .5*ln((1+r)/(1-r)), which after some log identities becomes .5*(ln(1+r)-ln(1-r)).

Dear HCP experts,

I am trying to reproduce the individual netmats from HCP500-PTN so that I am sure where the numbers come from. I used individual node timeseries in /ts2/subjID and did correlation in matlab. I then used fisher's z transformation: .5*ln(1+r)-ln(1-r). The resulting netmat is different from what is provided in *_netmat1/. However, they almost have a linear relationship. It seems to me that HCP is not using the same z transformation I have used. The transformation seems more like 7*ln(1+r)-ln(1-r).

I have downloaded FSLNets but could not identify which function was used to generate individual netmats in the first place. The example script seems to be about group-level netmats only.

Could you please share with me how exactly the numbers in individual netmats were generated?

Thanks,
Cherry
