Abstract
This work presents a novel application of a subspace Wiener filtering approach to multi-echo functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data from a cognitive neuroscience experiment in order to extract task-related brain activity at each voxel. Subspace Wiener filtering maximizes the correlation of a linear combination of multiple echo time-series with the signal subspace spanned by a set of target waveforms, e.g., the condition dependent modeled hemodynamic response derived from the design matrix. Compared with existing echo combination methods against a single echo baseline, subspace Wiener filtering leads to an increased selective enhancement of the signal components reflecting task-related BOLD activation, and could be useful for pre-processing multi-echo fMRI data.
