  • Abstract
    Blind source separation is being established as a new kind of analysis method in the field of fMRI data analysis. Its model-free approach renders it an important tool for investigation. In this article we present a method based on BSS/ICA to create a region of interest (ROI) mask for a BSS based fMRI data analysis. This eliminates a commonly necessary model-based step in fMRI data analysis. We demonstrate our approach on a real world fMRI data set example
