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

Hi (probably pt) :)

Per your suggestion, I changed the number of iterations from 50 to 300 for 3dDWUncert. I guess it makes sense that this would now extend the processing time of this command. However, I'm wondering what a *reasonable* amount of time would be. For instance, I am running our subjects (n=330) in parallel across 32 cores. After 3 days, I have gone in to check and it's only at ~20-30% for the first batch of 32 subjects. At this rate, I've calculated everything to be completed in 3 months! This seems abnormally long. Does my command below seem ok?

find SPN01* -type f | nohup parallel 'cd {} && cd afni && 3dDWUncert -inset ../data.nii.gz -prefix DWUncert -input 3dDWItoDT_ -bmatrix_FULL dwi_matA.txt -iters 300 -overwrite' ::: * > nohup_3dDWUncert.out &
