“…Because of its unique capacity of separating signal mixture from each voxel into source signals, investigators have used sICA to de-noise fMRI data by separating artifacts from signals (Aron and Poldrack, 2006; Beckmann, 2012; Brooks et al, 2013; Du et al, 2016; Griffanti et al, 2014; Tohka et al, 2008; Yakunina et al, 2013). Furthermore, some fMRI sICA studies have described spatial overlap of two or more FNs, indicating that sICA can separate BOLD signal mixtures from individual voxels into two or more FNs in the overlapping regions (Calhoun et al, 2008; Domagalik et al, 2012; Kim et al, 2009a; Kim et al, 2009b; Menz et al, 2009; St Jacques et al, 2011; van Wageningen et al, 2009; Wu et al, 2009; Zhang and Li, 2012). Very recently, we and at least three other groups systematically described FN overlap generated by sICA (Beldzik et al, 2013; Braga et al, 2013; Geranmayeh et al, 2014; Leech et al, 2012; Xu et al, 2014a; Xu et al, 2013a; Xu et al, 2013b; Yeo et al, 2013).…”
