External Email - Use Caution        

Hi experts,

I am running following command:


mri_glmfit.bin --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd
PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf
fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir


Both FSGD and Contrast files are also attached.


After I run above command, I get following error (highlighted in red):


mri_glmfit --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd
PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf
fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir

ERROR: matrix is ill-conditioned or badly scaled, condno = 1e+08

--------------------------------

Possible problem with experimental design:

Check for duplicate entries and/or lack of range of

continuous variables within a class.

If you seek help with this problem, make sure to send:

  1. Your command line:

    mri_glmfit.bin --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd
PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf
fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir

  2. The FSGD file (if using one)

  3. And the design matrix above

Attempting to diagnose further

SumSq: Min=1.034183 (col 7), Max=2.816108 (col 8)

 ... could not determine the cause of the problem


Both fsgd and contrast files are created in LINUX, and I also normalized my
data using DeMeanFlag 1

ReScaleFlag 1 as suggested here:

Could you please help in resolving this issue?


Thanks !
