Dimensional complexity of the EEG in patients with posttraumatic stress disorderJeong-Ho Chae
Department of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, South Korea
Psychiatry Res 131:79-89. 2004..This study supports the hypotheses that PTSD patients exhibit disturbed cortical information processing, and that non-linear dynamical analysis of the EEG can be a tool for detecting changes in neurodynamics of the brain in PTSD...
A note on the validity of statistical bootstrapping for estimating the uncertainty of tensor parameters in diffusion tensor imagesYing Yuan
Department of Statistics and Operations, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA
IEEE Trans Med Imaging 27:1506-14. 2008..Our findings raise serious concerns about the use of bootstrap methods to quantify the uncertainty of fiber pathways when those pathways pass through voxels that contain either isotropic tensors, oblate tensors, or multiple tensors...
