Abstract
In diffuse optical imaging (DOI) data analysis, the functional response is contaminated with physiological noise as in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). In this work we extend a previously proposed method for fMRI to estimate the parameters of a linear model of DOI time series. The regression is performed in the wavelet domain to infer drift coefficients at different scales and to estimate the strength of the hemodynamic response function (HRF). This multiresolution approach benefits from the whitening property of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT), which approximately decorrelates long-memory noise processes. We also show that a more accurate estimation is obtained by removing some regressors correlating with the protocol. Moreover, we observe that this improvement is related to a quantitative measure of 1/f noise. The performances of the method are first evaluated against a standard spline-cosine drift approach with simulated HRF and real background physiology. Lastly, the technique is applied to experimental event-related data acquired by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
