• realignment, spatial normalization, segmentation,
coregistration, spatial smoothing
• Statistical
• voxel by voxel statistical analysis
• general linear model, generalized for temporal
autocorrelation
• random effects analyses
• multiple comparisons: Corrected p-values from
random field theory
• plotting & results interrogation
• Utilities
• image display, rendering, brain extraction, image
algebra
• Implementation
• “toolbox” of MATLAB® functions
• GUI
• Availability
• open source academic freeware
• documented and informally supported
SPM GUI...

•
SPM
– MatLab functions & scripts
• basic “toolbox” functions • macro functions/scripts
• GUI functions & i/o primitives
– externally linked C-code
• intensive operations • memory mapping
– platform
• MatLab on UNIX, Linux, Windows
MatLab:
– 4th Generation language
• high level matrix based engineering maths language
• basic data type is matrix • mathematical syntax
– interpreted environment
– graphics & GUI primitives provided
– programming
• scripts • functions (can compile) • objects • linked C/C++
