=== Collaboration: Action Items ===

UNC

* Will provide high res DTI data sets for Georgia Tech.
* Will provide 10 datasets from a single patient on different scanners (availability has to be checked first)
* Investigation of Hypothesis Testing methodology (UNC) (analysis of low sample size, high dimensionality features) for non-linear feature spaces (GT, wavelet coefficients).
* Extension of STAPLE-technique to surfaces (UNC) using laplacian-equation based one-to-one surface correspondence (GT)

GT

* Currently investigating the problem of area preserving, conformal maps as presented by Allen.
* Currently investigating the application of genetics to the NA-MIC problem.
