Reduced Encoding Diffusion Spectrum Imaging Implemented With a Bi-Gaussian Model
Diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) can map complex fiber microstructures in tissues by characterizing their 3-D water diffusion spectra. However, a long acquisition time is required ...

Classification of fMRI Time Series in a Low-Dimensional Subspace With a Spatial Prior
We propose a new method for detecting activation in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. We project the fMRI time series on a low-dimensional subspace spanned by wave...
