sim.fmri {adaptsmoFMRI}R Documentation

Simulate FMRI Data

Description

This function returns the synthetic spatiotemporal data set resembling functional MR Images (fMRI) data.

Usage

  sim.fmri(hrf, beta)

Arguments

hrf

haemodynamic response function, needs to be a vector of length T.

beta

scalar, defines the height of the activated area, in form of a cylinder.

Details

The returned data is simulated on a 20 x 20 grid.

Value

fmri

matrix, simulated fmri data.

Note

This function is solely for one covariate.

Examples

# non-transformed hr-function
T <- 210
seq.length <- T*3
index <- seq(3, T*3, by = 3)
hrf <- rep(c(-0.5, 0.5), each=30, times=ceiling(T/30*1.5))
hrf <- as.matrix(hrf[index])
# define height of activation area
beta <- 3
# use function to obtain fmri data
data <- sim.fmri(hrf, beta)$fmri
