Dear SPM List,
I was wondering wondering about Bayesian estimation and spatial priors,
particularly can one use a functional activation map form another
experiment as a spatial prior during Bayesian estimation?
For example, in one experiment one would present a checkerboard pattern
to localize V1 then use this map as a hierarchical prior in the
estimation in a specific visual task experiment? Does this make sense?
Regards,
Glad
