Dear all,

I am analyzing the latency structure of some of the HCP resting-state fMRI
data and I want to make sure that this makes sense, given that no
slice-timing correction has been applied to the data. I would appreciate it
if someone could confirm that the following reasoning is correct:

Since the entire brain is scanned in 0.78 seconds (one sample), it does no
make sense to analyze signals latencies < 1 sample, because such small
latencies will be distorted. In particular, it does not make sense to
 interpolate the cross-covariance functions as done in one of Mitra's
papers).

However, latencies > 1 sample are distorted only by an amount of < 1 sample
and they can hence be analyzed. So, for example, if two signals have a
latency of 10 samples, the true latency lies between 9 and 11 samples
(assumed that the latency is accurately estimated).

Thanks and kind regards,
Rikkert Hindriks
