:: MatLab Tools For CORTEX  
This page contains information about the MATLAB routines written to analyze data generated by CORTEX.

These routines have been posted on the web so that others can use them to analyze their CORTEX data files, or as a model for writing their own MATLAB routines. The routines are provided "as is", and will not be supported by the laboratories that developed them.

  • NIH/LN MATLAB CORTEX Toolbox - custom routines currently being used by the Laboratory of Neuropsychology at NIH. These consist of a series of routines based on "m@cortex objects" and "SpikeTools". (Refer to the "m@cortex objects" and "SpikeTools" links below, which contain web sites with the latest updates to the code.) Some image conversion routines are also contained in the /bj-img-func directory.
  • SpikeTools - routines currently being used in the Miller Laboratory in the Brain and Cognitive Sciences Department at MIT. (Follow the "Software" link to reach the SpikeTools Matlab files.)
  • MatOFF - MatOFF is a general purpose data analysis program for neurophysiology, which supports CORTEX data files. This MATLAB program was written by the NIMH Laboratory of Systems Neuroscience.
  • m@cortex objects - data analysis tools for Matlab. Maintained by Giuseppe Bertini, University of Verona.
  • Salk Institute Matlab routines - custom routines currently being used by the Vision Center Laboratory at the Salk Institute. Included are a utility to convert various image files into Cortex image file format (and vice versa), a utility to create a Cortex LUT, and a utility to dump a Cortex output data file into a text file.


NIMH CORTEX was written by a team of dedicated researchers for the NIMH Laboratory of Neuropsychology.
