39 Theory: Segentation/Noralisation SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Why is noralisation difficult? No siple siilarity easure, a lot of possible transforations Different Iaging Sequences (Contrasts, geoetry distortion) Noise, artefacts, partial volue effects Intensity inhoogeneity (bias field) Noralisation of segented tissues is ore robust and precise than of original iage Tissue segentation benefits fro spatially aligned tissue probability aps (of prior segentation data) Motivates a unified odel of segentation/noralisation 40

44 Spatial noralisation Liitations SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Seek to atch functionally hoologous regions, but... Challenging high-diensional optiisation any local optia Different cortices can have different folding patterns No exact atch between structure and function Interesting recent paper Aiez et al.

45 Soothing Why blurring the data? SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Intra-subject signal quality Suppresses theral noise (averaging) Increases sensitivity to effects of siilar scale to kernel (atched filter theore) Kernel Single-subject statistical analysis Makes data ore Gaussian (central liit theore) SMOOTH Reduces the nuber of ultiple coparisons Second-level statistical analysis Iproves spatial overlap by blurring anatoical differences MNI Space GLM 46

51 Mixture of Gaussians SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Classification is based on a Mixture of Gaussians odel, which represents the intensity probability density by a nuber of Gaussian distributions. Multiple Gaussians per tissue class allow non-gaussian intensity distributions to be odelled e.g. partial volue effects Frequency (nuber of pixels) Iage Intensity 52

52 Tissue Probability Maps SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Tissue probability aps (TPMs) are used as the prior, instead of the proportion of voxels in each class ICBM Tissue Probabilistic Atlases. These tissue probability aps were kindly provided by the International Consortiu for Brain Mapping 53

53 Deforing the Tissue Probability Maps SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Tissue probability aps iages are warped to atch the subject The inverse transfor warps to the TPMs 54

54 Why regularisation? Overfitting SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Regularisation constrains deforations to realistic range (ipleented as priors) Non-linear registration using regularisation (error = 302.7) Teplate iage Affine registration (error = 472.1) Non-linear registration without regularisation (error = 287.3) 55

55 Modelling inhoogeneity SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth A ultiplicative bias field is odelled as a linear cobination of basis functions. Corrupted iage Bias Field Corrected iage 56

56 Unified segentation: The aths SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Mixture of Gaussians: probability of voxel i having intensity y i, given it is fro a specific cluster k (e.g. tissue class gray atter) Prior probability of voxel s tissue class (e.g. voxel proportion) γ k Joint Probability: Marginal probability of voxel intensity: Joint probability all voxels intensity: 57

57 US Maths: Bias Field SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Ipleented by adjusting the Means and Variances of the Gaussians on a pixel-by pixel basis by a function soothly varying in space, ρ i β : μ k μ k ρ i β, σ k 2 σ k ρ i β 2 ρ i is the exponential of a linear cobination of low frequency basis functions Paraeters to be estiated: vector β intensity probability conditioned on cluster identitiy: 58

58 US Maths: Spatial Priors by TPMs SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Replacing stationary ixing proportions γ k by voxel-dependent proportions which are infored by the prior tissue probabilities b ik for this voxel i and different tissue types k γ k γ k i = γ k b ik j=1 K γ j b ij Note: K can be larger than the nuber of tissue classes, since each class can be reflected by a ixture of Gaussians, e.g. 3 Gaussians for gray atter (to allow for non-gaussian distributions per tissue class) E.g. partial volue effects 59

59 US Maths: Deforation Fields SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Deforation (and thereby noralisation) is ipleented by allowing the prior TPMs (which are in MNI-space) to be spatially transfored by a paraeterised apping b ik b ik α P c i = k γ, α = γ kb ik (α) j=0 K γ j b ij (α) Paraeter vector to be estiated: α about 1000 discrete cosine transfors 60

60 US Maths: Regularisation SNR & Preproc Teporal Spatial General Realign Coreg Noralise Sooth Linear Regularisation of Bias Field and Deforation Field Estiates By including prior distributions for α and β as zero-ean ultivariate Gaussians Covariance: α T C α α = bending energy; ρ β = exp(k 70 N(0, β)) Thus, the final objective function to be axiised is the log-joint probability of intensity, bias and deforation field paraeters: Equivalenty, the negative free energy is iniised: 61
