plot.fmriICA: Diagnostics plots for objects of class ''fmriICA''

Description

The function generates plots for inspecting independent components obtained by spatial independent component analysis.

Usage

# S3 method for fmriICA
plot(x, comp = 1, center = NULL, thresh = 1.5, ...)
# S3 method for fmrigroupICA
plot(x, comp = 1, center = NULL, thresh = 1.5, ...)

Value

nothing returned.

Arguments

x

object returned by function fmri.sICA or preferably function ICAfingerprinting in case of plot.fmriICA and object returned by function fmri.sgroupICA in case of plot.fmrigroupICA

comp

number of the independent component to inspect.

center

coordinates for central point to determine axial, coronal and sagittal slices for display. If NULL the central point of the image cube is selected. center needs to be within the brain mask.

thresh

Threshold value

...

Details

The function generates diagnostic plots for the independent component specified in comp. It provides axial, coronal and sagittal images as determined by center. Values exceeding the threshold are displayed using a color scale. An IC fingerprint is given as a star plot. Additionally the time series corresponding to the spatial IC and its spectral density are plotted.
