| Abstract | With the increasing resolution and contrast of brain imaging devices automatic segmentation and quantification of the human cerebral cortex have grown popular for morphological analyses. The tightly folded cortex is often modeled with surfaces in 3D, and morphological features, such as the cortical thickness, can be calculated. In order to average and compare such morphological features within groups of subjects, mappings between the highly diverse cortical surfaces are needed. In this paper we evaluate five algorithms for mapping between discrete polygonal surfaces of cortices. Among the evaluated algorithms we include a new algorithm based on a functional expressing similarity between geometrical features. Four numerical mapping criteria, a landmark test, and statistical maps are used to evaluate the mapping algorithms. We show that the accuracy of manually placed landmarks are difficult to reproduce automatically, and the choice of mapping algorithm impacts the conclusions drawn from statistical maps generated by use of the algorithm. In terms of landmark accuracy, a spherical mapping approach with non-linear optimization is shown to be the best of the tested algorithms. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
