New statistical tests for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data were evaluated. Simulations suggest that using magnitude-only fMRI data may offer better performance than complex-valued data for certain statistical tests.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Biostatistics
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) generates complex-valued time series data.
  • Traditional statistical analysis often uses only the magnitude component of fMRI data.
  • Recent advancements include statistical tests that leverage the complex nature of fMRI data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the sensitivity of complex-valued generalized likelihood ratio tests (GLRTs) to phase model misspecifications in fMRI data.
  • To compare the performance of GLRTs using complex fMRI data versus magnitude-only fMRI data.

Main Methods:

  • Simulation experiments were conducted to assess statistical test performance.
  • The study focused on generalized likelihood ratio tests (GLRTs) for complex-valued fMRI data.

  • Sensitivity analysis was performed concerning phase model misspecifications.

    • Main Results:

    • Complex-valued GLRTs demonstrated sensitivity to small phase model misspecifications.
    • GLRTs utilizing only the magnitude component of fMRI data exhibited favorable detection rates.
    • Magnitude-based GLRTs maintained better constant false alarm rate properties.

    Conclusions:

    • In practical fMRI analysis, magnitude-based GLRTs may outperform complex-valued GLRTs.
    • Careful consideration of phase modeling is crucial when applying complex-valued statistical tests to fMRI data.
    • Magnitude-based analysis offers a potentially more robust approach for fMRI statistical inference.
