Informal CBU release - to ease reproducibility and data sharing, we make releases whenever the deployed version on the CBU imaging system changes.

This version includes the following improvements, relative to the previous version that was deployed at CBU (commit 334d46a, stored under /imaging/local/software/AA/release-5.4.0 on the CBU imaging system):

  • qsub is now faster, more responsive, and easier to debug (thanks Darren)

  • BIDS import is a lot more feature complete (thanks Tibor and me). If you plan to share data it can actually be a good idea to -start- your analysis by exporting the raw data to BIDS using cbu2bids, and then import the BIDS-format data to AA for processing. This way your AA script can be shared along with your BIDS data and everything will just work. In my experience this also helps get your AA pipeline running sooner, because when your code starts with importing BIDS you circumvent some of AA's less robust modules (dicom parsing and conversion).

  • The following new modules (have a look if the names sound intriguing):
