Computational anatomy with the SPM software.
An overview of computational procedures for examining neuroanatomical variability is presented. The review focuses on approaches that can be applied using the SPM software package, beginning by explaining briefly how statistical parametric mapping is usually applied to functional imaging data. The review then proceeds to discuss volumetry, with an emphasis on voxel-based morphometry, and the pr...
متن کاملWhat Makes Computational Open Source Software Libraries Successful? What Makes Computational Open Source Software Libraries Successful?
Software is the backbone of scientific computing. Yet, while we regularly publish detailed accounts about the results of scientific software, and while there is a general sense of which numerical methods work well, our community is largely unaware of best practices in writing the large-scale, open source scientific software upon which our discipline rests. This is particularly apparent in the c...
متن کاملThe PLOS Computational Biology Software Section
As a member of the PLOS family, PLOS Computational Biology promotes open and unrestricted access to scientific publications and the research products that support them. For PLOS Computational Biology, this specifically includes computational methods and the software that implements them. To foster a culture of open exchange and reuse of software, we created a new category of manuscripts called ...
متن کاملSoftware agents in molecular computational biology
Progress made in applying agent systems to molecular computational biology is reviewed and strategies by which to exploit agent technology to greater advantage are investigated. Communities of software agents could play an important role in helping genome scientists design reagents for future research. The advent of genome sequencing in cattle and swine increases the complexity of data analysis...
متن کاملThe Computational Anatomy of Psychosis
This paper considers psychotic symptoms in terms of false inferences or beliefs. It is based on the notion that the brain is an inference machine that actively constructs hypotheses to explain or predict its sensations. This perspective provides a normative (Bayes-optimal) account of action and perception that emphasizes probabilistic representations; in particular, the confidence or precision ...
