DESCRIPTION

micalc: Performs basic mathematics with data sets

File formats are automatically identified by their file extension. For binary operations with two input files, the protocol of the first input file will be used for the output file.

micalc can be used in one of the following modes:

Binary operation with data sets and/or scalar numbers:

micalc [-if1 <input-file1> | -in1 <input-number1>] -op <operation(+,-,*,/,min,max,lcorr,kcorr)> [-if2 <input-file2> | -in2 <input-number1>] -of <output-file>

Accumulation/reduction of one data set:

micalc -if <input-file> -op <operation(+,*,mean,median,stdev,min,max)>

Transformation (magnitude, logarithm, ...) of one data set:

micalc -if <input-file> -op <operation(abs,log,exp,-,/,acos)> -of <output-file>

Statistics of one data set:

micalc -if <input-file> [-mean <time-mean-file>] [-stdev <time-stdev-file>] [-fluct <relative-time-stdev-file>] [-tcourse <average time course of all voxels>][-hist <histogram> -histslots <numofslots> [-histmin <minval>] [-histmax <maxval>] [-rightstairs] [-histfract] [-loghist] [-histslotmap <file>]]

-mask <Binary mask file: voxels with zeroes are discarded>
