A PSO-Powell Hybrid Method to Extract Fiber Orientations from ODF

Figure 7

Fiber orientations extracted from ODF fields constructed with QBI, CSA-QBI, and DOT. (a) is the FA map of 50th slice. (b), (d), and (f) are the ODF fields constructed with QBI, CSA-QBI, and DOT, respectively. (c), (e), and (g) are the vector map extracted from (b), (d), and (f), respectively. The ODFs marked out by red rectangles contain spurious peaks coming from computation models.
