  5. 3. Signal Processing for Robust and Real-Time fMRI With Application to Brain Computer Interfaces

    Author : Anders Eklund; Hans Knutsson; Malin Björnsdotter Åberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : It is hard to find another research field than functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) that combines so many different areas of research. Without the beautiful physics of MRI we would not have any images to look at in the first place. To get images with good quality it is necessary to fully understand the concepts of the frequency domain. READ MORE

  6. 4. Computational Medical Image Analysis : With a Focus on Real-Time fMRI and Non-Parametric Statistics

    Author : Anders Eklund; Hans Knutsson; Mats Andersson; Stephen LaConte; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : functional magnetic resonance imaging; brain computer interfaces; canonical correlation analysis; random permutation test; graphics processing unit;

    Abstract : Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a prime example of multi-disciplinary research. Without the beautiful physics of MRI, there wouldnot be any images to look at in the first place. To obtain images of goodquality, it is necessary to fully understand the concepts of the frequencydomain. READ MORE
