| Abstract | To characterize the brain changes associated with aging, we detect brain cortex variability through a spherical harmonic analysis that represents a 3D surface supported by the unit sphere through a linear combination of special basis functions, called spherical harmonics (SHs). The proposed 3D shape analysis is carried out in four steps: (i) 3D Delau-nay triangulation to construct a 3D mesh model of the brain cortex surface; (ii) mapping this model to the unit sphere; (iii) computing the SHs for the surface; and (iv) calculating the area under the error reconstruction curve for the SHs to delineate the brain cortex. We describe the brain shape complexity with a new shape index, the estimated area under the error reconstruction curve for the SHs. The initial experiments on 187 male subjects (age range, 4–22 years) and the comparison results with the cortex volumetric index suggest that our shape index is a promising supplement to current metrics that characterize age-related brain changes. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
