Estimation of neuronal responses from fMRI data

Martin Havlíček, J. Jan, Milan Brázdil, Vince D. Calhoun · 2011

In this paper we describe a deconvolution technique for estimation of the neuronal signal from an observed hemodynamic responses in fMRI data. Our approach, based on the Rauch-Tung-Striebel smoother for square-root cubature Kalman filter, enables us to accurately infer the hidden states, parameters, and the input of the dynamic system. Additionally, we enhance the cubature Kalman filter with a variational Bayesian approach for adaptive estimation of the measurement noise covariance.
