Description

This program internally calls mri_glmfit but provides an interface that is similar to Qdec's (the visualzation program) and has fewer, simpler options. Instead of generating a directory of results, it generates a Qdec Project File, or a .qdec file, which can be loaded in Qdec.

Examples

Example 1

./qdec_glmfit \
  --data-table ~/subjects/qdec/qdec_data_table.dat \
  --working-dir /tmp \
  --subjects-dir ~/subjects \
  --average-subject fsaverage \
  --analysis-name thickness-diagnosis_and_iq-lh10 \
  --discrete-factor diagnosis \
  --continuous-factor IQ --continuous-factor age \
  --measurement thickness \
  --hemisphere lh \
  --smoothness 10 \
  --output Test.qdec
