Summary:A novel data-driven sparse generalized linear model (GLM) and statistical analysis method for fMRI is developed. Although independent component analysis (ICA) has been broadly applied to fMRI to separate spatially or temporally independent components, recent studies show that ICA does not guarantee independence of simultaneously occurred distinct activity patterns in the brain and sparsity of the signal has been shown to be more important. Motivated from the ICA and biological findings such as sparse coding in the primary visual cortex simple cells, we propose a compressed sensing based data-driven sparse GLM solely based upon the sparsity of the signal. It enables estimation of spatially adaptive design matrix from sparse signal components that represent synchronous neural hemodynamics. Furthermore, an MDL based model order selection rule can determine unknown sparsity for sparse dictionary learning.
