qPRF: A system to accelerate population receptive field decoding.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Patterns of BOLD response can be decoded using the population receptive field (PRF) model to reveal how visual input is represented on the cortex (Dumoulin and Wandell, 2008). The time cost of evaluating the PRF model is high, often requiring days to decode BOLD signals for a small cohort of subjects. We introduce the qPRF, an efficient method for decoding that reduced the computation time by a factor of 1436 when compared to another widely available PRF decoder (Kay, Winawer, Mezer and Wandell, 2013) on a benchmark of data from the Human Connectome Project (HCP; Van Essen, Smith, Barch, Behrens, Yacoub and Ugurbil, 2013). With a specially designed data structure and an efficient search algorithm, the qPRF optimizes the five PRF model parameters according to a least-squares criterion. To verify the accuracy of the qPRF solutions, we compared them to those provided by Benson, Jamison, Arcaro, Vu, Glasser, Coalson, Van Essen, Yacoub, Ugurbil, Winawer and Kay (2018). Both hemispheres of the 181 subjects in the HCP data set (a total of 10,753,572 vertices, each with a unique BOLD time series of 1800 frames) were decoded by qPRF in 15.2 hours on an ordinary CPU.
