External Email - Use Caution
Hi there,
Thanks for the advice, I have followed these suggestions and used the fs_install_mcr command and can see the the libmwm* libraries are installed under $FREESURFER_HOME/MCRv97/bin/glnxa64. I also added the path the script suggested once finished to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I’m now not sure how to open matlab now though as I can’t find any executable matlab file? There were no error with the command but it doesn’t look like matlab was installed…
Thanks again for the help,

Hello Sophie,
Just FYI, there is no matlab distribution included in the 7.4.1 release and we so not support using R2023b. So I presume someone at your site installed R2023b separately via a Mathworks matlab installer. We do provide a script, fs_install_mcr, to install either the R2014b or R2019b matlab runtime environment into the freesurfer tree for use. I don't know if running R2019b would affect what you report below, but you could try it via the commands below.
- R. $ export FREESURFER_HOME=/usr/local/freesurfer/7.4.1 <--- linux install path
$ source $FREESURFER_HOME/SetUpFreeSurfer.sh
<... output showing SUBJECTS_DIR and other environment variables>
$ cd $FREESURFER_HOME/bin
$ sudo FREESURFER_HOME=$FREESURFER_HOME ./fs_install_mcr R2019b
I believe this sets things up so the libmwm* libraries are installed under $FREESURFER_HOME/MCRv97/bin/glnxa64. You can try adding that path (or any path the script output recommends) to the start of LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You should remove any other entries to a different MATLAB distribution.

External Email - Use Caution Hello FreeSurfer experts!
I have carried out some analysis of changes in cortical thickness over time using the LME Matlab (R23b) Toolbox distributed within Freesurfer (7.4.1) in line with the instructions on this page: MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be https://secure-web.cisco.com/1rNAD4gqg44tkqx4SQvGQfRilSVHebkoBEjCBFe7yx4GGha...https://secure-web.cisco.com/1T0jceJqjr8o0YltVDmmB4EAlEhKr0pMp8gIavJ6vaUX1HtK-Q7_-yis2I7b9vCr3VJvdjHFpm7iOSm-HwZDzLYf9Nkj3tT_o8O99hjM6rAdq1g-WORzpm0WPWMgQJgFAhXft6qOrg2xj11ey4u2NsJXZ3jTQi3YP8bPpvvJB7IqfGoNub-6dGd_s6cilB6iqLKwORhHOIfRB0ZG-bCXTKNUbxYdeLONr_Yrr1o35sEMNfnZLfwT9iBoaqpJ007DIJRYohd5R1rxIU-WwpMzx_LQw7DlgyJUcyfbsyDixY8O15o-b4J-7Z3i5E1XSMaoz/https%3A%2F%2Fsurfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Ffswiki%2FLinearMixedEffectsModels
At this stage I just want to look at changes over time within each of three groups. For two groups I have been able to proceed through the steps fine and have my significance files which look normal. For the last group I am running into an error on the “[lhTh0,lhRe] = lme_mass_fit_EMinit(X,[1 2],Y,ni,lhcortex,3); “ step. MATLAB returns “Warning: Matrix is singular, close to singular or badly scaled” and lhTh0 and lhRe are created as matrices with only NaN values.
Has anyone run into this error before or have any tips for troubleshooting it?
I haven’t had any errors on the longitudinal processing steps and visual QC on my files looks normal. No errors on mris_preproc or mri_surf2surf. An aparcstats2table for thickness doesn’t reveal any NaNs.
My design matrix is created with X = [ones(length(M),1) M] after following the suggested sortData code from the wiki Contrast is [0 1] This is my qdec file:
