I have download the prepossessed ABIDE I data. I can import the time series data (*.1D) by matlab. But I try to use the command "load" to load the time series, it does not work. Details of using "load" to load the prepossessed ABIDE I data can be found as follows

load('G:/ABIDE1_File/Outputs/cpac/filt_global/rois_cc400/Caltech_0051456_rois_cc400.1D');
??? Error using ==> load
Unknown text on line number 1 of ASCII file G:/ABIDE1_File/Outputs/cpac/filt_global/rois_cc400/Caltech_0051456_rois_cc400.1D
"#1".
Would you please give me some suggestions? Thank you

the .1D files are simple text files. I don't work with matlab, but a quick search suggests you could use 'dlmread'

Thank you for your answer. But dlmread does not work.

I opened the file with the notepad software of windows.
I deleted the head of the file (KKI_0050822_rois_ho.1D) as follows. Then I can use "dlmread" to read the file.

But what are the meanings of above #numbers ?

I have solve the problem about how to load the ABIDE I data. I can use the Matlab function of "importdata". Thank you.

Hi can you please give the matlab code which you use to import and read the ABIDE dataset. I m working on the data but i could not read the data so if you can help me i will be thankful.

For anyone who still needs help with the ABIDE dataset:

You can get information on the preprocessed dataset from here: http://preprocessed-connectomes-project.org/abide/index.html

To download the data, you can download the python script from here https://github.com/preprocessed-connectomes-project/abide/blob/master/download_abide_preproc.py, you can read on how to use the script here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/preprocessed-connectomes-project/abide/master/download_abide_preproc_guide.txt.

Once the data is downloaded (assuming you downloaded the time series), you can load the data using MATLAB's importdata command (e.g.importdata('Caltech_0051456_rois_aal.1D') - Caltech_0051456_rois_aal.1D is an actual file name).

you will notice that the headers are labelled - you can get information on the meaning of the labels and further prepoc settings here http://preprocessed-connectomes-project.org/abide/Pipelines.html, if you scroll down to "Regions of Interest", you can download the labels for the atlas used and get the ROI name for the given label.
