Dear RSA group,

I have fixed the bootstrap tests, which had been implemented incorrectly in the previous version of the RSA toolbox. The new function rsa/stat/bootConfint now calculates confidence intervals (default 95% CIs) using two different methods: bias-corrected and accelerated CIs or CIs based on the percentile method (see Efron & Tibshirani, 1993). These CIs are used for inference on relatedness between candidate and reference RDMs (one-tailed) and comparison between candidate RDM correlations (two-tailed test).

The bootstrapping procedure itself is now changed so that on each iteration the statistic of interest (mean correlation) is calculated in the same way as in the original sample to yield valid bootstrap distributions.

Minor fix: FDR-based significance thresholds cannot be "empty" anymore.

The code has been tested with DEMO1 while switching from signed rank test to the bootstrap tests.

I hope that you find these changes useful.

Best,
Michael

…lier versions it was a warning. In 2014a it is an error.
Function getUserOptions let’s you specify input parameters flexibiy as
structures (with fields) or in the ‘fieldname’, value, … style. Should
be used consistently in the toolbox.
Utility function to deal with User Options flexibily
different. Flexible transform functions are allowed (not just rank
transform)
OLS model estimation and MANOVA model
Added the searchlight toolbox. Functionality added for running
volumetric and surface based searchlights. Also added functionality for
reading and writing gift files.
Image RDM can now work on an array of structs or on a data frame

1. Speeding up covdiag
2. Additional (optional) input parameter to covdiag (df)
3. Options to do ‘runwise’ and ‘overall’ noise normalisation in
distanceLDCraw and noiseNormalizeBeta
4. replaced Sw^-0.5 with inversion over eigenvalues, making the code
~20% faster and numerically (potentially) more stable.
to include former distanceLDC.
Otherwise more universal handling of input arguments.
WARNING  - these need to be still beta-tested!
pairMatrix is like indentityMatrix(‘allpairs’), but much faster
Small changes for SPM12 compatibility.

Matlab r2104a compatibility - code reviewed, fixes work.

This file has existed outside the github repository for years, I'm just adding it in.
Include missing exhaustivePermutations file.
- Structure containing Mask image to rsa.defineSearchlight_surface now requires the mask variable (was previous data variable)
- Moved readMask to base directory, now is rsa.readMask and can be used to read mask images in the correct format for rsa.defineSearchlight_surface
- Moved readSurf to base directory, now is rsa.readSurf
- Added surfing functions in +surf package (required for rsa.defineSearchlight_surface)
- Fixed calling function to surfing_coords2linvoxelidxs in rsa.defineSearchlight_surface so that Mask is applied when defining searchlights
- Modified documentation for a handful of searchlight functions
- Readme.md contains overview of toolbox
- Manual in markdown is in rsa_toolbox_manual.md
- info.txt contains a link to a primer on using markdown to write formatted text
- makepdf.txt contains information on how to compile markdown manual file to create a pdf
…2candRDMs.m, made sure that FDRthreshold doesn't return empty p if nothing gets significant
