BayesfMRI
The BayesfMRI R package includes the main function BayesGLM, which
implements a spatial Bayesian GLM for task fMRI. It also contains a
wrapper function BayesGLM_cifti, for CIFTI cortical surface fMRI data.

You can install BayesfMRI from CRAN
with:
install.packages("BayesfMRI")Vignette
See this link to view the tutorial vignette.
Important Note on Dependencies:
BayesfMRI depends on the ciftiTools package, which requires an
installation of Connectome Workbench. It can be installed from the HCP
website.
The INLA package is required, which, due to a CRAN policy, will not be
installed automatically. You can obtain it by running
install.packages("INLA",repos=c(getOption("repos"),INLA="https://inla.r-inla-download.org/R/stable"), dep=FALSE).
For more information, see the INLA
website. Note: INLA must be
installed before installing BayesfMRI.
On Mac platforms, an installation of
Xcode is necessary to build the C++
code included in BayesfMRI.
