[Freesurfer] Reproducibility of freesurfer analyses across different version of linux

Dear FreeSurfer experts,I found this paper about named “Reproducibility of neuroimaging analyses across operating systems” (Glatard et al., 2015). There were differences in cortical morphometry like cortical thicknes between images proscced in the same version of freesurfer with different version of Linux or glibc for Freesurfer, and according to the paper, it was caused by how different version of glibc handles small single precssion floating numbers. I have therefore some questions. Are there plans for freesurfer to use double floating numbers in steps that may be affected by numerical stability? Or can this problem be solved by using staticall linking glibc into Freesurfer? Best regards Knut Jørgen BjulandPhD candidateNTNU
