BrainStat has been refactored as the basis of the NIPY project. Development of the BrainStat trunk has stopped and this page serves as an historical document only.

Old (BrainSTAT) releases

BrainSTAT-0.15 release (alpha)

Go to the DownloadInstall page to install the BrainSTAT-0.15 release. This software is still in alpha testing, one of the big things missing being documentation, though doc strings can be found in many useful places. It has been used to analyse the FIAC (Functional Imaging Analysis Contest) data for !HBM2005.

New in release 0.15

  • Improved visualization: optional crosshairs, montage views, interactive viewers.
  • Worked PCA example: PrincipalComponents.

New in release 0.14

  • Use of traits -- with some TraitsUI functionality added to the visual tools.
  • Parallelization: integration with pyMPI with options to run parallel loops over slices, parallelize the OneSample test in NonParametric.
  • Improved visualization.
  • Use of BrainSTAT.cfg files to control per-directory execution of BrainSTAT scripts.

FIAC data analysis

Jonathan used the (then) BrainSTAT code to analyze the FIAC FMRI analysis competition dataset. Here are some files you will need to start working with this example analysis:

  • Here is the python script that was used to generate the analyses presented in the FIAC session at HBM2005.
  • The script uses the FSL software package for pre-processing. Here is a copy of the script used for the preprocessing results: a few local directory structures may have to be changed.
  • Note: this FIAC script is now a little out of date -- updated, cleaner version soon to follow.
