AFNI HISTORY

level 2 and higher

The levels of importance go from 1 to 5, with meanings:
       1 - users would not care
       2 - of little importance, though some users might care
       3 - fairly important
       4 - a big change or new program
       5 - IMPORTANT: we expect users to know

---- log of AFNI updates (most recent first) ---- 24 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, afni-matlab, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) Stopped writing empty attributes which caused trouble in AFNI. Empty attributes make AFNI halt the parsing of the header.
23 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, suma, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) Workaround for connection drop between AFNI and SUMA in Shared Memory Mode. Env SUMA_AttemptTalkRecover allows SUMA to recover from drop. This ENV is set by default to No. 23 Nov 2009, G Chen, 3dKS.R, level 2 (MINOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Kolmogorov-Smirnov test This is an R program that runs Kolmogrov-Smirnov test between two groups of subjects. It takes individual sub-brick files from each subject as input and spills two sub-bricks in the output, first one being the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic D, while the 2nd the corresponding Z-score.
20 Nov 2009, DR Glen, 3dAutomask, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) apply_prefix option to save automasked input avoids 3dcalc step that is usually used to apply an automask.

17 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) SUMA now handles labeled datatets in a special manner An example of a labeled dataset would be FreeSurfer's annotation files. If an annotation file is present in the spec file (@SUMA_Make_Spec_FS), SUMA will display it as part of the background. You can chose to display the labeled dataset in color, contours, or both. Data from labeled datasets is now shown under the 'Lbl' field in the surface controller's Xhair block. 17 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, suma_general, level 2 (MINOR), type 3 (NEW_ENV) SUMA_AlwaysAssignSurface (see suma -environment for details) 17 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, suma_general, level 2 (MINOR), type 3 (NEW_ENV) SUMA_LabelDsetOpacity (see suma -environment for details) 17 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, suma_general, level 2 (MINOR), type 3 (NEW_ENV) SUMA_ConvexityDsetOpacity (see suma -environment for details) 17 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, suma_general, level 2 (MINOR), type 3 (NEW_ENV) SUMA_ShowLabelDsetAtStartup (see suma -environment for details) 17 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, ROI2dataset, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) Option -label_dset creates a labeled dataset from ROIs.

09 Nov 2009, ZS Saad, SurfPatch, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) Added options to check for, and correct 'bowties' in pathches.

04 Sep 2009, RC Reynolds, plug_realtime, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) registration can now be consistent across runs Reg Base can be 'Current': to set the base volume from the current run (call this the old way), 'Current & Keep': use current run, but then store that base and apply it to future runs, 'External Dataset': fix the base from some chosen dataset. Using 'Current & Keep' makes sense for realtime registration.
03 Sep 2009, DR Glen, align_epi_anat.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) Bug fixes for certain combinations Allowed BASE and SOURCE specification for oblique data Allowed 3dWarpDrive volume registration with mean/max base Removed anatomical output with oblique data and only epi2anat

24 Jun 2009, RW Cox, 3dREMLfit, level 2 (MINOR), type 0 (GENERAL) Modify to use OpenMP more effectively. Have to avoid use of Doug's matrix.c functions in the main loops, since they do so much malloc/free, which blocks other threads from running. Instead, rewrote versions of the needed functions that use pre-allocated workspace arrays. Speedup is very good now for the REML setup and REML voxel loops. Haven't decided whether to OpenMP-ize the GLSQ or OLSQ loops, since these usually take much less time. 24 Jun 2009, RC Reynolds, afni-general, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) applied print changes from B Feige (26 files): 3dfim.c afni.c afni_niml.c mri_free.c mrilib.h 3dmatmult.c NLfit_model.c suma_datasets.h gifti/gifti_tool.c rickr/serial_helper.c SUMA/ SUMA_3dSurfMask.c SUMA_ConvertSurface.c SUMA_CreateIcosahedron.c SUMA_Load_Surface_Object.c SUMA_MapIcosahedron.c SUMA_NikoMap.c SUMA_ParseCommands.h SUMA_SphericalMapping.c SUMA_Surf2VolCoord_demo.c SUMA_Surface_IO.c SUMA_SurfWarp.c SUMA_compare_surfaces.c SUMA_xColBar.c svm/3dsvm.c svm/3dsvm_common.c volpack/vp_octree.c

28 May 2009, RC Reynolds, strblast, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) partial words had resulted in skipping ahead found by R Notestine of UCSD 28 May 2009, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY) example updates for AFNI_data4 and new options
27 May 2009, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) updates for alignment/warp/varying run lengths - added -volreg_warp_dxyz option - if align a2e, add -no_ss to @auto_tlrc - for varying run lengths, fixed application of '-volreg_align_to last' and the -regress_est_blur_* options (blur estimation loops were modified for this) - warping to new grid truncates to 2 significant bits (if < 2 mm)
