Abstract

Recent technological advances have created a surge of interest in the use and application of mobile neuroimaging tools. With an increasing number of publications accumulating every year, there’s a need for automated methods of tracking and relating the collective results of published functional neuroimaging studies. There are currently several projects across the neuroimaging research community that are committed to both the qualitative and quantitative organization of neuroinformatics data and its related research publications for numerous functional neuroimaging modalities and cognitive research domains (Jezek & Mou, 2009; Laird et al., 2011; Poldrack et al., 2013; Poldrack et al., 2011). However, no such project exists which provides such a comprehensive schema for the categorization, organization and meta-analyses of the vast body of functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) literature that has emerged in the past two decades.
