Sharing preprocessed data
• Make data available to a wider audience of researchers
• Evaluate reproducibility of analysis results
http://preprocessed-connectomes-project.github.io/
Which of the data do you include in an analysis?
• Use it all and hope that the introduced error will be swamped out by the large number of samples? – data quality vs. size trade-off
• Only use the best data as determined by visual inspection?– Limited by intra- and inter- rater reliability– Is the human eye good enough to identify data that is good
enough? (what is “good enough” for data?)• Choose data based on quantitative metrics?
– Which Metrics?– What thresholds?

Quality Assessment Protocol
http://preprocessed-connectomes-project.github.io/quality-assessment-protocol/
Quality Assessment Protocol (2)- Open source pipeline for calculating quality assessment measures
from raw MRI data- Implemented in Python using Nipype
- Fast execution on cluster and multi-core computers- Restart processing without having to redo everything
- Uses AFNI and custom Python functions- Runs on Mac OSX, Linux, BSD, and Unix
Spatial Measures• sMRI & fMRI• Foreground to Background Energy
Ratio• Contrast to Noise Ratio (sMRI only)• Entropy Focus Criterion• Smoothness (FWHM)• % Artifact Voxels• Signal-to-Noise Ratio• Ghost-to-Signal Ratio (fMRI only)

Ratio• Contrast to Noise Ratio (sMRI only)• Entropy Focus Criterion• Smoothness (FWHM)• % Artifact Voxels• Signal-to-Noise Ratio• Ghost-to-Signal Ratio (fMRI only)
Temporal Measures • Global Correlation (GCOR)• Standardized DVARS• Median distance index• Mean Functional
Displacement• # Voxels with FD > 0.2m• % Voxels with FD > 0.2m

Repository of data measures
• Normative datasets to help learn thresholds for quality control– ABIDE– CoRR

Correlation Between Measures
A
Correlation between measures for structural (A) and functional (B) data. ABIDE on lower triangle, CoRR on upper triangle. X values are insignificant at FDR corrected q < 0.05.
Most discriminative measures
Green is good data, red is poor data as determined by manual assessments from four expert raters (consensus).
