specifyregion: Generate activation image

Description

Generates an image with activated regions for specified dimensions. The regions are defined by their center and radius or can be entered manually.

Usage

specifyregion(dim, coord, radius = NULL, 
	form = c("cube", "sphere", "manual"), 
	fading = 0)

Value

An array representing the activation image with specified regions.

Arguments

dim

Dimensions of the image space.

coord

Coordinates of the activated region, if form=="cube" or form=="sphere", the coordinates represent the center of the region, if form=="manual", the coordinates should be in matrix form, where the rows represent the voxels and the columns the x-y-z coordinates.

radius

If form=="cube" or form=="sphere", the distance in voxels from the center of the region to the edge.

form

The form of the activated region. Default is "cube".

fading

Decay rate between 0 and 1. 0 means no fading, while 1 results in the fastest decay.
