Consensus inference in neuroimaging

Neuroimage. 2001 Jun;13(6 Pt 1):1212-8. doi: 10.1006/nimg.2000.0718.

Abstract

We introduce model averaging in neuroimaging. We show that model summary images can be directly compared and averaged after histogram equalization. We demonstrate that averaging enhances the ROC curve in a simulation study. The averaging procedure is applied to a fMRI study of motor cortex.
