*Tissue-based nuisance regressors.*
*Tissue-based nuisance regressors, including aCompCor.*

Tissue-based nuisance regressors are capable of reducing the influence of subject movement (as well
as physiological artefacts) on the data. Mean white matter and cerebrospinal fluid signal are most
often used to this end (e.g., Windischberger et al., 2002; Satterthwaite et al., 2012), but
principal component analysis can also be used to extract signals of no interest from anatomical
compartments (Behzadi et al., 2007: aCompCor). This approach requires a known segmentation of the
compartments (Behzadi et al., 2007: aCompCor). The number of aCompCor components removed can either
be specified as a fixed number, or by the percent variance explained (usually this is 50% as in
Muschelli et al., 2014.) This approach requires a known segmentation of the
anatomical image into tissue classes. If you provided an output directory from the ANTsCT routine
or the anatomical stream, then a segmentation will automatically be available as the derivative
``segmentation``.::
