External Email - Use Caution
Hi Donatas,
I've read your full paper and it is very interesting. During my
investigation on the use of SAMSEG and ASEG for AD/MCI patients, I've
found some unexpected behaviors.
I'm using the 7.2 version of Freesurfer and I've realized that I get
different results using the same data but when I run the SAMSEG multiple
times (on the same patient). This doesn't happen with ASEG.
Differently from using ASEG, SAMSEG provides also the chance to execute
the code using multiple threads.
In the first run I've executed SAMSEG on ADNI patient id 002_S_0685
using the MP-RAGE series having ID I18211 (the link below provides the
NIFTI version of the series which has been used for the processing).
This patient is part of ADNI dataset.

The first execution of SAMSEG was with default settings (1 thread) and
results are attached, the second was using --threads 6.
These results from the SAME series are similar but they are NOT the same.
Do you have an explanation for that?
