AFNI HISTORY

level 3 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) ---- 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.
19 Oct 2009, DR Glen, align_epi_anat.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) New master options, dset1/2 terminology New master_nnn_dxyz options to specify output resolution dset1 and dset2 for non-EPI/anat alignment with lpa cost function and turns off preprocessing steps giant_move option turns off resampling and changes master options Expanded help - including fuller description of edge method Removed volume registration (motion correction) for anat2epi option by default. AFNI dataset views (+orig/+acpc/+tlrc) are maintained in output depending on BASE, SOURCE or external dataset names for all output
06 Oct 2009, ZS Saad, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) More bug fixes related to ROI loading, and OSX's GLX problem
29 Sep 2009, RW Cox, afni, level 3 (MAJOR), type 5 (MODIFY) InstaCalc is more-or-less ready At least, I let Mike Beauchamp test it for his cunning plans.
24 Sep 2009, ZS Saad, suma, level 3 (MAJOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX) Fixed crashes on OS X 10.5 caused by OS X's buggy GLX implementation
22 Jul 2009, RC Reynolds, realtime_reaceiver.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) python replacement for serial helper New 'data_choice' options can be added to compute_data_for_serial_port for sending results of a different computation to the serial port.
16 Jul 2009, RC Reynolds, realtime_receiver.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) replacement for serial_helper
17 Jun 2009, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) version 2.0 : call e2a alignment and warp to standard space ready - mask warped EPI by its extents (at volreg step) - added -volreg_no_extent_mask, to block this masking - added 'extents' to list of mask in -mask_apply - change block dividers to more visual '===' with block names
20 May 2009, G Chen, 3dMEMA.R, level 4 (SUPER), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Mixed-Effects Meta Analysis (MEMA) This is an R program that runs group analysis in a truly random mixed-effects sense by taking both beta and t-statistic as input instead of beta value only in the conventional method. See more details at http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/sscc/gangc/MEMA.html
19 May 2009, ZS Saad, @ROI_Corr_Mat, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) A script to calculate correlation matrices between ROI time series Calculates the correlation matrices between average time series from ROIs defined in a mask volume. Script was written with Hang Joon Jo.
15 May 2009, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) added -volreg_tlrc_warp option: can warp to standard space at volreg step
06 May 2009, RW Cox, afni, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) First edition of InstaCorr! Rough around the edges, but gnarly-ific to the level of the first inaccessible cardinal!
09 Apr 2009, RC Reynolds, afni_proc.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT) 'official' release with RETROICOR processing block: ricor o added 'across-runs' ricor_regress_method o added ricor information and usage to help (see 'RETROICOR NOTE') o maintain unscaled shorts if they are input o added -ricor_datum
19 Mar 2009, RC Reynolds, 1d_tool.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) added lib_afni1D.py and 1d_tool.py This is a library and tool for manipulating 1D files. Many functions will still be added.
22 Dec 2008, G Chen, 3dICC.R, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) IntraClass Correlation (ICC) This is an R program that calculates ICC on 3D volume data based on a two- or three-way random-effects ANOVA scheme. See more details at http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/sscc/gangc/ICC
16 Dec 2008, G Chen, 3dGC.R, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Bivariate Granger causality analysis This is an R program that runs Granger causality analysis with a seed region versus the rest of the brain. See more details at http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/sscc/gangc/3dGC
13 Dec 2008, ZS Saad, afni-matlab, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) RetroTS creates regressors for cardiac, respiratory, and RVT filtering RetroTS.m and accompanying functions create slice-based regressors for regressing out the effects of cardiac, respiratory, and RVT effects from FMRI time series. The regressors generated are meant to be used with 3dREMLfit.
02 Dec 2008, ZS Saad, SpharmReco, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Reconstructs data from spherical harmonics decomposition. See SpharmDeco -help and the demo script @Spharm.examples for details. 02 Dec 2008, ZS Saad, SpharmDeco, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) Performs spherical harmonics decomposition. This program performs spherical harmonics decomposition for surfaces' geometry and/or surface-based data See SpharmReco -help and the demo script @Spharm.examples for details. 02 Dec 2008, ZS Saad, @Spharm.examples, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) A script to demonstrate the usage of SpharmDeco and SpharmReco 02 Dec 2008, ZS Saad, @NoisySkullStrip, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) A script to improve skull stripping in noisy of heavily shaded data
01 Dec 2008, RC Reynolds, timing_tool.py, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG) a tool for manipulating and evaluating stimulus timing files This is useful for getting statistics on rest timing.
