Lost in localization — But found with foci?!

Open access
Van Essen, David C.·2009·NeuroImage

Abstract

Commentaries by Derrfuss and Mar [Derrfuss, J., Mar, R.A., 2009. Lost in localization: the need for a universal coordinate database. Neuroimage (doi:10.1016/j.neuroimage.2009.01.053).], Nielsen [Nielsen, F.A., 2009. Lost in localization: a solution with neuroinformatics 2.0? Neuroimage.], Hamilton [Hamilton, A., 2009. Lost in localization: a minimal middle way. Neuroimage.], and Laird and Fox [Laird, A.R., Fox, P.T., 2009 Lost in localization? The focus is meta-analysis. Neuroimage.] agree on the need for a comprehensive database of published stereotaxic coordinates but offer diverse views on how best to achieve this objective. Here, I summarize recent enhancements to the SumsDB database that increase its utility and decrease the impediments to data submission, thereby making it attractive as a resource that can approach comprehensive content in a realistic time frame.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Previous neuroimaging synthesis approaches relied heavily on researchers' manual efforts.

    “previous approaches have relied heavily on researchers’ manual efforts (e.g., 7,8)”
  • Automatically extracted coordinates compared with manually entered SumsDB foci had sensitivity of 84% and specificity of 97%.

    “we compared automatically extracted coordinates with a reference set of manually-entered foci in the SumsDB database7,9, revealing high rates of sensitivity (84%) and specificity (97%).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
