Analysis of Residual Dependencies of Independent Components Extracted from fMRI Data

Figure 2

Dendrogram obtained from clustering the pairwise mutual distances between extracted ICs from simulated datasets in the case of noise level and time delay of 2.5 seconds. The algorithm for estimating the pairwise distances is the histogram-based approach with rank ordering. The results obtained with model order = 5 (a), 10 (b), 15 (c), and 20 (d) are shown.
