The FIX code includes a hcp_fix wrapper script, which you could run on the task fMRI time series data. It should be pretty straightforward.
However, the fact is that the 3T task data was not denoised by FIX because the zstat maps generally _decrease_ in statistical significance after FIX in regions where task activation is expected. This reduction could be the result of removing task-correlated signal or removing task-correlated noise. We have not determined that the reduced zstats are due to noise, so we have elected to forego FIX on task fMRI for now. --Greg ____________________________________________________________________ Greg Burgess, Ph.D. Staff Scientist, Human Connectome Project Washington University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry Phone: 314-362-7864 Email: [email protected] > On Aug 2, 2016, at 1:42 PM, Chan, Adrian Ka Ho <[email protected]> wrote: > > Dear HCP experts, > > In the "900 subject" release, the rfMRI preprocessed data comes in two > flavors, for example: > > <SubjectID>/MNINonLinear/Results/rfMRI_REST1_LR_Atlas_MSMALL.dtseries.nii > and > <SubjectID>/MNINonLinear/Results/rfMRI_REST1_LR_Atlas_MSMALL_hp2000_clean.dtseries.nii > > On the other hand, the tfMRI data seems to be released only in the first form > (ie, ending with _Atlas_MSMALL.dtseries.nii).
