Hi Yi Ming,

thank you for your message. I think this is unfortunately not documented but 
you can find it in the code:

https://phabricator.mitk.org/source/mitk-diffusion/browse/master/Modules/Connectomics/Algorithms/mitkConnectomicsNetworkCreator.cpp$111


Edges are weighted by the sum of the corresponding fiber weights. In the 
typical case of unweighted fibers (weight=1), this defaults to the fiber count 
between two regions. The fiber weights are adjusted by fitting them to the data 
using a methdo similar to SIFT2 in the fiber processing perspective.

The fiber length could theoretically be taken into account by weighting the 
fibers by their length, but I did not implement this weighting option.


Best,

Peter

Betreff: [mitk-users] MITK-Diffusion network creation

Hello,

Is there any documentation for how exactly the Connectomics view obtains a 
network from a parcellation and fiber image? For example, how are the length 
and number of fibers in a bundle related to the output edge weights?

Thank you!
Yi Ming
