title: The role of auxiliary parameters in evaluating voxel-wise encoding models for
3T and 7T BOLD fMRI data
description: In neuroimaging, voxel-wise encoding models are a popular tool to predict
brain activity elicited by a stimulus. To evaluate the accuracy of these predictions
across multiple voxels, one can choose between multiple quality metrics. However,
each quality metric requires specifying auxiliary parameters such as the number
and selection criteria of voxels, whose influence on model validation is unknown.
In this study, we systematically vary these parameters and observe their effects
on three common quality metrics of voxel-wise encoding models in two open datasets
of 3- and 7-Tesla BOLD fMRI activity elicited by musical stimuli. We show that such
auxiliary parameters not only exert substantial influence on model validation, but
also differ in how they affect each quality metric. Finally, we give several recommendations
for validating voxel-wise encoding models that may limit variability due to different
numbers of voxels, voxel selection criteria, and magnetic field strengths.
