NAME
       minccmp - compare one or	more minc file using comparator	operators

SYNOPSIS
       minccmp [<options>] <in1.mnc> <in2.mnc> [<inn.mnc> ...]

DESCRIPTION
       minccmp	will  calculate	 simple	 statistical measures between two minc
       files or	more by	comparing all subsequent files to the first.  The  re-
       sults  for  each	subseqent file are then	returned in order.  By default
       all statistics are calculated. If specifitc  statistics	are  requested
       via  a  command-line  option,  then  only  the requested	statistics are
       printed.

       A very useful feature of	this program is	the ability  to	 restrict  the
       set  of	voxels	included  in  the statistic calculation, either	by re-
       stricting the range of included values (-floor, -ceil or	-range), or by
       using a mask file (-mask) with a	restricted range.

       The comparison statistics available in minccmp are  given  below.  Note
       that  two  of these (-xcorr and -zscore)	are a very close approximation
       to what is used in minctracc.

OPTIONS
       Note that options can be	specified in abbreviated form (as long as they
       are unique) and can be given anywhere on	the command line.

General	options
       -clobber
	      Overwrite	an existing file.

       -noclobber
	      Don't overwrite an existing file (default).

       -debug Dump a lot of extra information (for when	things go haywire).

       -verbose
	      Print out	extra information (more	than the default).

       -quiet Print out	only the requested numbers

       -max_buffer_size_in_kb size
	      Specify the maximum size of the internal	buffers	 (in  kbytes).
	      Default is 4 MB.

       -check_dimensions
	      Check  that  all input files have	matching sampling in world di-
	      mensions (default).

       -nocheck_dimensions
	      Ignore any differences in	world dimensions  sampling  for	 input
	      files .

Volume range options
       -floor min
	      A	 lower bound for ranges	of data	to include in statistic	calcu-
	      lations.

       -ceil max
	      An upper bound for ranges	of data	to include in statistic	calcu-
	      lations.

       -range min,max
	      A	lower and upper	bound for the ranges of	 data  to  include  in
	      statistics.

       -mask filename.mnc
	      Name  of	file to	be used	for masking data included in statistic
	      calculations.

Basic statistics
       -all   Compute all statistical measures.	This is	the default.

       -ssq   Print the	Sum Squared Difference between two input files
		 SSQ = Sum( (A-B)^2 )

       -rmse  Print the	Root Mean Squared Error	between	two input files
		 RMSE =	sqrt( 1/n * Sum((A-B)^2))

       -xcorr Print the	Cross Correlation between two input files
		 XCORR = Sum((A*B)^2) /	(sqrt(Sum(A^2))	* sqrt(Sum(B^2))

       -zscore
	      Print the	z-score	difference between two input files
		 ZSCORE	= Sum( |((A - mean(A)) / stdev(A)) -
				((B - mean(B)) / stdev(B))| ) /	n

Generic	options	for all	commands:
       -help  Print summary of command-line options and	exit.

       -version
	      Print the	program's version number and exit.
