bidspm

This is a Matlab / Octave toolbox to perform MRI data analysis on a BIDS data set using SPM12.

Installation

From docker hub

bash docker pull cpplab/bidspm:latest

From source

In a terminal or a git bash prompt, type:

bash git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/cpp-lln-lab/bidspm.git

To start using bidspm, you just need to initialize it for the current MATLAB / Octave session with:

matlab bidspm()

Please see our documentation for more info.

Usage

For some of its functionality bidspm has a BIDS app like API.

See this page for more information.

But in brief they are of the form:

matlab bidspm(bids_dir, output_dir, ... 'analysis_level', ... 'action', 'what_to_do')

Creating a default BIDS statistical model

Use a MATLAB / Octave script with:

```matlab % path to your raw BIDS dataset bidsdir = pathofrawbids_dataset;

% where you want to save the model outputdir = pathwheretheoutputshouldgo;

taskstoincludeinmodel = {'task1', 'task2', 'task3'};

% for example 'MNI152NLin2009cAsym' spacetoincludeinmodel = {'spaceName'};

bidspm(bidsdir, outputdir, 'dataset', ... 'action', 'defaultmodel', ... 'task', taskstoincludeinmodel, ... 'space', spacetoincludein_model) ```

GLM

Use a MATLAB / Octave script with:

```matlab % path to your raw BIDS dataset bidsdir = pathofrawbids_dataset;

% where you want to save the model outputdir = pathwheretheoutputshouldgo;

preprocdir = pathtopreprocesseddataset; % for example fmriprep output

modelfile = pathtobidsstatsmodeljson_file;

subject_label = '01';

bidspm(bidsdir, outputdir, 'subject', ... 'participantlabel', {subjectlabel}, ... 'action', 'stats', ... 'preprocdir', preprocdir, ... 'modelfile', modelfile) ```

Preprocessing

```matlab bidsdir = pathtorawbidsdataset; outputdir = pathtowheretheoutputshouldgo;

subject_label = '01';

bidspm(bidsdir, outputdir, 'subject', ... 'participantlabel', {subjectlabel}, ... 'action', 'preprocess', ... 'task', {'yourTask'}) ```

Features

Statistics

The model specification are set up using the BIDS stats model and can be used to perform:

• whole GLM at the subject level
• whole brain GLM at the group level à la SPM (meaning using a summary statistics approach).
• ROI based GLM (using marsbar)
• model selection (with the MACS toolbox)

Preprocessing

If your data is fairly "typical" (for example whole brain coverage functional data with one associated anatomical scan for each subject), you might be better off running fmriprep on your data.

If you have more exotic data that cannot be handled well by fmriprep then bidspm has some automated workflows to perform amongst other things:

• remove dummies

• slice timing correction

• spatial preprocessing:

  • realignment OR realignm and unwarp
  • coregistration func to anat,
  • anat segmentation and skull stripping
  • (optional) normalization to SPM's MNI space

• smoothing

All (well almost all) preprocessed outputs are saved as BIDS derivatives with BIDS compliant filenames.

Quality control

• anatomical data (work in progress)
• functional data (work in progress)
• GLM auto-correlation check

Please see our documentation for more info.
