The Gaussian hidden Markov model (GHMM) toolbox is for dealing with the spatial heterogeneity of cartilage progression across both time and subjects. To estimate unknown parameters in GHMM, we employ a pseudo-likelihood function and optimize it by using an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. The proposed model can effectively detect diseased regions in each OA subject and present a localized analysis of longitudinal cartilage thickness within each latent subpopulation. 2016-4-14 GHMM-V3 Statistical Methods for Heterogeneous Neuroimaging Data MR, BIAS License http://www.nitrc.org/projects/ghmm/
