Bayesian spatial hierarchical model<br />
[Derado et al., 2012, Statistical Methods in Medical Research].<br />
Notation<br />
We developed a Bayesian spatial hierarchical model for predicting<br />
follow-up neural activity based on baseline functional neuroimaging<br />
data <strong>and</strong> other patient characteristics.<br />
Model borrows strength from spatial correlations present in the data.<br />
Let i = 1, . . . , n denote subjects, v = 1, . . . , V voxels, g = 1, . . . , G<br />
regions.<br />
Let Y (v) denote the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) (a proxy for<br />
brain activity) at voxel v.<br />
(<br />
) T<br />
Let Y ig (v) = Y ig (v) (1) , Y ig (v) (2) , (1)=baseline, (2)=follow-up.<br />
