Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging inherently involves noisy measurements and a severe multiple test
problem. Smoothing is usually used to reduce the effective number of multiple
comparisons and to locally integrate the signal and hence increase the
signal-to-noise ratio. Here, we provide a new structural adaptive segmentation
algorithm (AS)
that naturally combines the signal detection with noise reduction in one procedure.
Moreover, the new method
is closely related to a recently proposed structural adaptive smoothing
algorithm and preserves shape and spatial extent of activation areas without
blurring the borders.
