BIAC MATLAB Users,

Version 2.2 of the BIAC MATLAB software has been released into \\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC\. All of the BIAC domain computers are now using the new version. This release includes numerous enhancements many of which were previously in the beta directory. Changes are detailed in \\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC\VersionHistory.txt

Some significant updates include:

Added "Launch Pad" items for all BIAC Toolboxes.

Added overview help files for all BIAC Toolboxes. These can be accessed by typing:
  help BIAC\general
  help BIAC\mr
  help BIAC\EEGad
overlay2
- Integrated ROI drawing tool
- Give user option to use last selected runs when calculating ROI statistics.

qastats2
- Better memory management so that larger runs can be processed.

showsrs2
- Automatically interpolate overlays in the slice direction.
- Optionally use colormap to chose time series plot line color.
- Added passing default transparency.
- Added support for non-double numeric arrays.
- Added menu to turn plotting of time series for each overlay on/off.
- Added contextual menus to copy data from time series plot lines.
- Added contextual menu to change color & style of crosshairs.
- Misc fixes & enhancements.

splinealignmr
- Added option to choose output format (volume or float).

tstatprofile
- Integrated into in the main BIAC software distribution
therefore there is no need to add the old directory to your path
\\Gall\Programs\User_Scripts\tstatprofile\

Enjoy,
Chuck

Note: Changed distribution location from Broca to Gall on 1 May 2003.

BIAC MATLAB Users,

I fixed a bug in overlay2 that prevented users from loading multiple rois without val fields using the 'LoadROIs' feature. (See: http://www.biac.duke.edu/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=159)

Updated file(s):
mr\overlay2.m

Fixes for bugs found between software releases will be merged into the "live" version of the software at \\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC\

Just fixes themselves will be put into \\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC_Patches\BIAC_ver2.2_Patches\
so that the fixes can be retrieved without getting the entire distribution again, if so desired.

A message will be posted to this topic whenever a new fix is released for version 2.2 of the BIAC MATLAB software.

Enjoy,
Chuck

Note: Changed distribution location from Broca to Gall on 1 May 2003.
Note: Changed location of patch directory on 23 Feb 2004.

BIAC MATLAB Users,

The main distribution on BIAC MATLAB software is now located the new server Gall (\\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC) instead of Broca. The startup files for the BIAC MATLAB software have been updated to reflect this change.

Updated file(s):
startup.m
startup-stub.m

All of the computers in the BIAC domain are now running the BIAC MATLAB software from Gall instead of Broca by default.

Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

Josh Bizzell fixed a bug in tstatprofile. Multi-digit bin numbers in the BinsTest field of the control files were not being read correctly.

Updated file(s):
mr\tstatprofile.m

Josh said that if people had attempted to compare bins with multi-digit bin numbers (i.e. "12", "214", etc) using the old version of tstatprofile, it would have crashed or the desired comparisons would have been missing from the output. Note that the problem only effected the BinsTest field, not the Bins field of the control file.

Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

I fixed a bug in readmr that prevented requesting just the parameters when specifying an image format that has a header and specifying the default parameters.

People may have seen this bug if they performed the following sequence of actions:
(1) Launch overlay2
(2) Load a DICOM base image
(3) Draw or load an ROI
(4) Attempt to do "Stats" on the ROI. (The GUI would state that you did not select any series before giving you a chance to select series).

This bug had no effect on previous results; it only resulted in an annoyance when attempting to use the GUI.

Updated file(s):
mr\readmr.m

Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

Josh Bizzell changed the handling of NaN's in tstatprofile. tstatprofile now converts NaN values to
zero when calculating grand average and standard deviation volumes.

Updated file:
mr\tstatprofile.m

BIAC MATLAB Users,

I built all of the BIAC MATLAB mex files for the p670 (AIX 5.2) for MATLAB 6.5.

New files:
fix\MATLAB65\cellfun2.mexrs6
general\hcoords.mexrs6
general\minmax.mexrs6
general\readxml.mexrs6
general\scaled2rgb.mexrs6
general\trilinear.mexrs6
general\writexml.mexrs6


The XML functions (readxml and writexml) were built using libxml2 version 2.4.19.

Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

Mary Beth Nebel fixed some capitalization problems that prevented her from using tstatprofile on the p670 (or any system with a case-sensitive filesystem).

Updated file:
mr\tstatprofile.m

BIAC MATLAB Users,

I updated findexp to use the experiment databases on Huxley instead of Bristol. Also, experiments that have multiple experiment directories will return the last entry in the experiment databases.

Updated file:
general\findexp.m

BIAC MATLAB Users,

I updated findexp to support UNIX systems (e.g. Golgi). The new function unc2unix converts UNC paths to UNIX paths assuming that a particular convention is used for the server mount points.

Updated file:
general\findexp.m

New file:
general\unc2unix.m

Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

The capitalization of several function calls from the EEGad toolbox have been correct to match the actual capitalization of the functions. Function names are case-sensitive on case-sensitive filesystems (e.g. Linux and UNIX). These changes will have no effect on Windows.

Updated files:
EEGad\chanArea.m
EEGad\chanAvg.m
EEGad\checkBins.m
EEGad\EEGRead.m
EEGad\EEGTweak.m
EEGad\hodad.m


Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

I updated the version history text file to include information on all of the patches applied (the same ones listed in this forum already).

Updated file(s):
VersionHistory.txt

Enjoy,
Chuck

BIAC MATLAB Users,

Version 2.2 of the BIAC MATLAB Software has been superseded by Version 3.0 (see http://www.biac.duke.edu/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=338). If you wish to use version 2.2, set your BIACMATLABROOT environment variable to \\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC_ver2.2patched

BIAC MATLAB Users,

Version 2.2 for the BIAC MATLAB Software has been retired. The following directories were deleted from the BIAC Servers:

\\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC_ver2.2patched\
\\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC_Patches\BIAC_ver2.2_Patches\

If anyone still wishes to use this version from the BIAC servers, please post to the forums. The software can also be downloaded from the following location:

\\Gall\Programs\MATLAB\BIAC_matlab_20031022_ver2.2patched.zip

Enjoy,
Chuck
