I attached a very short example .lyx file (basically containing only a
citation reference and the BibTeX references), as well as the
corresponding .bib file.

                        in the context of the intrinsic two-dimensional structure
                        of the cortical surface. In order to study such cortical
                        properties in humans, it is necessary to obtain an accurate
                        and explicit representation of the cortical surface in 
individual
                        subjects. Here we describe a set of automated procedures
                        for obtaining accurate reconstructions of the cortical 
surface,
                        which have been applied to data from more than 100 subjects,
                        requiring little or no manual intervention. Automated routines
                        for unfolding and flattening the cortical surface are 
described
                        in a companion paper. These procedures allow for the routine
                        use of cortical surface-based analysis and visualization

abstract            = { Automatic segmentation of MRI brain scans is a complex task
                        for two main reasons: the large variability of the human
                        brain anatomy, which limits the use of general knowledge
                        and, inherent to MRI acquisition, the artifacts present
                        in the images that are difficult to process. To tackle these
                        difficulties, we propose to mix, in a cooperative framework,
                        several types of information and knowledge provided and
                        used by complementary individual systems: presently, a 
multi-agent
                        system, a deformable model and an edge detector. The outcome
                        is a cooperative segmentation performed by a set of region
                        and edge agents constrained automatically and dynamically
                        by both, the specific gray levels in the considered image,
                        statistical models of the brain structures and general 
knowledge
                        about MRI brain scans. Interactions between the individual
                        systems follow three modes of cooperation: integrative,
                        augmentative and confrontational cooperation, combined during
                        the three steps of the segmentation process namely, the
                        specialization of the seeded-region-growing agents, the
                        fusion of heterogeneous information and the retroaction
                        over slices. The described cooperative framework allows
                        the dynamic adaptation of the segmentation process to the
                        own characteristics of each MRI brain scan. Its evaluation
                        using realistic brain phantoms is reported. },

                        is based on histogram shape analysis of MR images that were
                        corrected for scanner nonuniformity. Calibration and 
validation
                        was done on a set of 80 MR images of human brains. The 
automatic
                        method's values for the gray and white matter volumes were
                        compared with the values from thresholds set twice by the
                        best three of six raters. The automatic procedure was shown
                        to perform as good as the best rater, where the average

                        images (MRI). Our method first removes nonbrain tissue using
                        a combination of anisotropic diffusion filtering, edge 
detection,
                        and mathematical morphology. We compensate for image

                        due to magnetic field inhomogeneities by fitting a tricubic
                        B-spline gain field to local estimates of the image 
nonuniformity
                        spaced throughout the MRI volume. The local estimates are
                        computed by fitting a partial volume tissue measurement
                        model to histograms of neighborhoods about each estimate

                        image are then classified into six tissue types using a
                        maximum a posteriori classifier. This classifier combines

                        of the Internet Brain Segmentation Repository, our method
                        achieved average kappa indices of kappa = 0.746 +/- 0.114

                        (fMRI). The method exploits knowledge of the anatomy of
                        the cortex and incorporates structural constraints into
                        the segmentation. First, the white matter and cerebral spinal
                        fluid (CSF) regions in the MR volume are segmented using
                        a novel techniques of posterior anisotropic diffusion. Then,
                        the user selects the cortical white matter component of
                        interest, and its structure is verified by checking for

                        of gray matter is used to create a flattened representation
                        of the cortex. Then, fMRI measurements are overlaid on the
                        flattened representation, yielding a representation of the
                        volumetric data within a single image. The software is freely
