Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Conventional analysis of fMRI responses in neuroimaging experiments is typically voxel-wise, i.e. independent of spatial neighbourhood information. However, valid responses are likely to be spatially clustered and connected in 3D space. Identifying spatial relations is commonly considered a pre-processing step, isotropic Gaussian filtering for noise reduction for example. Current post-processing methods consider spatial information but not temporal information; once an activation map is obtained, voxels that do not have a sufficient number of spatial neighbors are simply removed. This paper describes how we have successfully incorporated fuzzy region growing into EvIdent®, an fMRI data analysis application. The method uses spatial-temporal information to enhance spatially connected temporally related activation regions.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
