Hi AFNI experts,
If I understand correctly, the author "hjr61547" seems asking if there is a program could classify or group functional connectivity maps, e.g. sorting connectivity snapshots into k groups by maximizing within-cluster similarity and between-cluster dissimilarity. I knew there is a k-means clusting algorithm in MATLAB could do this, while I don't know if there is an AFNI program could do similar thing.
I noticed that there is one called 3dkmeans, while it seems classifying clusters in the spatial domain. If so, could you write a program for the above purpose please?
I would say it will be a very useful program for AFNI users. Here are two references using similar approach:
Allen et a., 2016. Cerebral Cortex. Tracking Whole-Brain Connectivity Dynamics in the Resting State
Gonzalez-Castillo et al., 2015. PNAS. Tracking ongoing cognition in individuals using brief, whole-brain functional connectivity patterns
Thank you,
Zirui
