yes, you can. There's no right answer for FWHM, but people usually use 5-20mm.

When I compare the thickness measure among subjects, I have to resample and smooth the thickness, so that each data have the same number of vertices and which are in correspondence with one another across subjects. Now I have .curv files or .sulc files for each subject and would like to make group analysis for these datasets. To compare the curvature and sulc measures, can I follow the same procedures as above ( ie I repeat the resampling and smoothing steps as I do for thickness)? If yes, how should I choose FWHM? By the way, could you recommend me relevant papers that calculates the following indices :
    k1     maximum curvature
k2 minimum curvature K Gaussian = k1*k2
    H    Mean         = 0.5*(k1+k2)
        C    Curvedness     = sqrt(0.5*(k1*k1+k2*k2))
    S    Sharpness     = (k1 - k2)^2
    BE    Bending Energy     = k1*k1 + k2*k2
    SI    Shape Index    = atan((k1+k2)/(k2-k1))
    FI    Folding Index    = |k1|*(|k1| - |k2|)
   .sulc,
   .curv
So that I can get a better understanding of what the above measures reflects. Thanks a lot! yczhang
