.. index:: SplitROIs

SplitROIs
---------

`Link to code <file:///build/nipype-4ReYCB/nipype-0.11.0/nipype/algorithms/misc.py#L1150>`__

Splits a 3D image in small chunks to enable parallel processing.
ROIs keep time series structure in 4D images.
>>> from nipype.algorithms import misc
>>> rois = misc.SplitROIs()
>>> rois.inputs.in_file = 'diffusion.nii'
>>> rois.inputs.in_mask = 'mask.nii'
>>> rois.run() # doctest: +SKIP

Inputs::

        [Mandatory]
        in_file: (an existing file name)
                file to be splitted

        [Optional]
        in_mask: (an existing file name)
                only process files inside mask
        roi_size: (a tuple of the form: (an integer, an integer, an integer))
                desired ROI size

Outputs::

        out_files: (a list of items which are an existing file name)
                the resulting ROIs
        out_index: (a list of items which are an existing file name)
                arrays keeping original locations
        out_masks: (a list of items which are an existing file name)
                a mask indicating valid values

.. _nipype.algorithms.misc.TSNR:


.. index:: TSNR

TSNR
----

`Link to code <file:///build/nipype-4ReYCB/nipype-0.11.0/nipype/algorithms/misc.py#L274>`__

Computes the time-course SNR for a time series

Typically you want to run this on a realigned time-series.

Example
~~~~~~~

>>> tsnr = TSNR()
>>> tsnr.inputs.in_file = 'functional.nii'
>>> res = tsnr.run() # doctest: +SKIP

Inputs::

        [Mandatory]
        in_file: (a list of items which are an existing file name)
                realigned 4D file or a list of 3D files

        [Optional]
        ignore_exception: (a boolean, nipype default value: False)
                Print an error message instead of throwing an exception in case the
                interface fails to run
        regress_poly: (an integer >= 1)
                Remove polynomials

Outputs::

        detrended_file: (a file name)
                detrended input file
        mean_file: (an existing file name)
                mean image file
        stddev_file: (an existing file name)
                std dev image file
        tsnr_file: (an existing file name)
                tsnr image file
