Synthetic Aperture Magnetometry

The SAMsrcV3 suite implements the latest advances in MEG source localization. Compared with the older CTF tools, there are many new features (some of them experimental). Filtering options, more flexible control over active, control, and noise covariance matrices, dual-state imaging, realistic head models, and several flavors of multipole source imaging are available.

• Module Name: samsrcv3 (see the modules page for more information)

Allocate an interactive session and run the program.
Sample session (user input in bold):

[user@biowulf]$ sinteractive
salloc.exe: Pending job allocation 46116226
salloc.exe: job 46116226 queued and waiting for resources
salloc.exe: job 46116226 has been allocated resources
salloc.exe: Granted job allocation 46116226
salloc.exe: Waiting for resource configuration
salloc.exe: Nodes cn3144 are ready for job

[user@cn3144 ~]$ module load samsrcv3

[user@cn3144 ~]$ sam_cov -r my_dataset -m settings.param

[user@cn3144 ~]$ exit
salloc.exe: Relinquishing job allocation 46116226
[user@biowulf ~]$

Create a batch input file (e.g. samsrc.sh). For example:

#!/bin/bash
set -e
module load samsrcv3
sam_cov -r my_dataset -m settings.param

Submit this job using the Slurm sbatch command.

sbatch [--cpus-per-task=#] [--mem=#] samsrc.sh

Create a swarmfile (e.g. samsrc.swarm). For example:

sam_cov -r dataset01 -m settings.param
sam_cov -r dataset02 -m settings.param
sam_cov -r dataset03 -m settings.param
sam_cov -r dataset04 -m settings.param

Submit this job using the swarm command.

swarm -f samsrc.swarm [-g #] [-t #] --module samsrcv3
