Supervised map ICA: applications to brain functional MRI

DOI

Description

This paper gives a method to control or organize itself an activation pattern of fMRI maps obtained by ICA (independent component analysis). The presented method uses an additional term to the convex divergence's gradient. The following merits are observed: (i) Prior knowledge can be effectively used so that obtained activation patterns properly reflect the task on the subject. (ii) Difficulty of finding the appropriate activation pattern due to the permutation can be avoided. Experiments on brain fMRI maps for visual cortices are tried and reported.
