AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

If you want to duplicate the work in the paper by Wall (et al.), then you have to find out the parameters that BrainVoyager uses. I cannot find that information after spending all of 2 minutes with Google.

You can choose the K and W (peak and width) parameters based on looking at data, or at the models Wall used. Probably the exact values won't matter much in the final results. The r value determines the size of the undershoot, and is usually in the range 0.1 to 0.2. Again, the exact value probably does not matter much.

You can plot your sample waveform with a command like this (here I've set r = 0.2):
3dDeconvolve -num_stimts 1 -polort -1 -nodata 51 0.5 \
   -stim_times 1 '1D: 0' 'TWOGAMpw(4,5,0.2,12,7)'       \
   -x1D stdout: | 1dplot -stdin -THICK -del 0.5
Making plots like this will let you decide quickly if the parameters make sense to you. The synthetic TR used is 0.5, to make the graphs look smooth.
