Hi AFNI experts,

I have a question regarding resting state proc.py. The below is the script I used for the analysis and its from output -help afni proc.py.

afni_proc.py -subj_id subj123 \
-dsets epi_run1+orig.HEAD \
-copy_anat anat+orig \
-blocks despike tshift align tlrc volreg blur mask regress \
-tcat_remove_first_trs 3 \
-volreg_align_e2a \
-volreg_tlrc_warp \
-regress_censor_motion 0.2 \
-regress_censor_outliers 0.1 \
-regress_bandpass 0.01 0.1 \
-regress_apply_mot_types demean deriv \
-regress_est_blur_epits \
-regress_est_blur_errts


From some reason, the result spits out the following fatal error and I am not sure what causes this.


++ 3dDeconvolve extending num_stimts from 12 to 162 due to -ortvec
++ 3dDeconvolve: AFNI version=AFNI_17.1.10 (Jun 6 2017) [64-bit]
++ Authored by: B. Douglas Ward, et al.
++ STAT automask has 161867 voxels (out of 172800 = 93.7%)
++ Skipping check for initial transients
++ Input polort=4; Longest run=474.0 s; Recommended minimum polort=4 ++ OK ++
++ Number of time points: 237 (before censor) ; 111 (after)
+ Number of parameters: 167 [167 baseline ; 0 signal]
** FATAL ERROR: 3dDeconvolve dies: Insufficient data (111) for estimating 167 parameters

Could you please advise me what is the issue here?

Thank you in advance,
Jun
