    Analysing fMRI experiments with the fmri package in R. version 1.0 : a user's guide
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2006) Polzehl, Jörg; Tabelow, Karsten
    This document describes the usage of the R package fmri to analyse functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data with structure adaptive smoothing procedures (Propagation-Separation (PS) approach) as described in [7].

    Structural adaptive smoothing for single-subject analysis in SPM: the aws4SPM-toolbox
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2008) Hoffmann, Devy; Tabelow, Karsten
    There exists a variety of software tools for analyzing functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging data. A very popular one is the freely available SPM package by the Functional Imaging Laboratory at the Wellcome Department of Imaging Neuroscience. In order to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio it provides the possibility to smooth the data in a pre-processing step by a Gaussian filter. However, this comes at the cost of reducing the effective resolution. In a series of recent papers it has been shown, that using a structural adaptive smoothing algorithm based on the Propagation-Separation method allows for enhanced signal detection while preserving the shape and spatial extent of the activation areas. Here, we describe our implementation of this algorithm as a toolbox for SPM.
