   abstract = {In neuroimaging research, a wide variety of quantitative computational methods enable inference of
               results regarding the brain’s structure and function. In this chapter, we survey two broad
               families of approaches to quantitative analysis of neuroimaging data: statistical testing and
               machine learning. We discuss how methods developed for traditional scalar structural neuroimaging
               data have been extended to diffusion magnetic resonance imaging data. Diffusion MRI data have higher
               dimensionality and allow the study of the brain’s connection structure. The intended audience of
               this chapter includes students or researchers in neuroimage analysis who are interested in a
               high-level overview of methods for analyzing their data.}
