Fieldtrip-SPM8 integration
• Full version of Fieldtrip is contained in SPM8 under
/external/fieldtrip.
• Fieldtrip raw, timelock and freq structures can be
converted into SPM8 datasets with spm_eeg_ft2spm.
• D.ftraw and D.fttimelock can be used to export SPM
dataset to Fieldtrip raw and timelock/freq structs
respectively.
• Fieldtrip and SPM share common forward modelling
framework. Head models created in SPM can be used in
Fieldtrip.
Fieldtrip-SPM8 integration – the future
• Time-frequency analysis will be done using
shared code.
• Matlabbatch interface as in SPM will be created
for all top-level Fieldtrip function, so Fieldtrip will
have GUI for the first time.
• Matlabbatch and distributed computing toolbox
from FieldTrip will be combined for easy-to-use
job parallelization framework that will work with
both FieldTrip and SPM.
MEEGTools
•MEEGTools toolbox includes some useful functions
contributed by SPM developers and power users.
•Many of these functions combine SPM and FieldTrip
functionality.
•Other functions solve system-specific problems that cannot
be handled in by the main SPM code.
Beamforming
•
Functions in the beamforming toolbox make it
possible to perform source reconstruction using
beamforming methods in the time and
frequency domains and extract source activity
using beamformer spatial filters.
•
They make use of SPM-generated forward
models (see ‘Source reconstruction’) and
(where relevant) generate images that can be
entered into the SPM statistics pipeline.
•
Some of these functions are based on FieldTrip
code and others are being developed by Gareth
Barnes at the FIL.
•
We are now working on optimizing these
functions for Neuromag but this is still in
progress.

Bayes‘ Theorem

person processes information."

Bayesian model inversion
•
Knowing the probability of data given the
model (which is something we can define)
Bayes rule makes it possible to compute the
probability of model parameters given the
data.
•
This requires specifying prior beliefs about
the parameters values.
•
Bayes rule is a mathematically optimal way to combine prior knowledge and
information derived from the data.
•
Model parameters will be moved from their prior values only if there is a need for
it to fit the data. Thus, in a model with many parameters we can make inferences
just about those that are important.
•
Bayesian model evidence, approximated by a quantity called ‘free energy’ is a
single number combining a measure of ‘goodness of fit’ of a model with
‘complexity penalty’. It allows comparing different models for the same data.

Summary: the outputs of DCM
• Predicted data as similar as possible to the real
data.
• Posterior values of models parameters and
posterior precisions (measures of confidence
about those values).
• Free energy value (F) which can be used to
compare models fitted to the same data.

Summary
• Dynamic Causal Modelling (DCM) is an approach
combining computational neuroscience and
neuroimaging data analysis.
• DCM makes it possible to estimate hidden
parameters from observable measurements given
a model that links between the two.
• Although there is complex theoretical background
behind DCM, its application is straightforward and
does not necessarily require mathematical training
or programming skills.
