Step-by-step
This guide will show you how to get started using the Brain AnalyzIR toolbox
Step 1: Download and install the github Desktop
Step 2. Clone the Repository
Clone the repository using the following link: https://github.com/huppertt/nirs-toolbox.git
Step 3. Path
1. Type pathtool in Matlab command window
2. Add Folder: ‘Desktop/nirs-toolbox’
3. Add with Subfolders: ‘Desktop/nirs-toolbox/demos’
4. Add with Subfolders: ‘Desktop/nirs-toolbox/external’
5. With all the external folders still selected, click “Move to Bottom”
Step 4. Testing
This step ensures that you have correctly installed the AnalyzIR toolbox. In the MATLAB Command Window, type ‘nirs.’ and press the Tab Key.
RUN THIS
You can try running this simple script in MATLAB to see if the toolbox is working properly on your computer:
% This is only run the first level stats from sim data, then plot the hbo
clear all; clc;
raw = nirs.testing.simData([], @(t)nirs.testing.blockedStimDesign(t,10,20));
job = nirs.modules.default_modules.single_subject;
Stats = job.run(raw);
Stats.draw(‘tstat’,[],‘p<0.05’,[],[],‘hbo’);
If you encounter an error related to “Signal Processing Toolbox”
1. Unzip ‘Desktop/nirs-toolbox/external/matlab/toolbox.zip’
2. Type ‘Pathtool’ in the Command Window
3. Add with Subfolders: ‘Desktop/nirs-toolbox/external/matlab/toolbox’
