Abstract
We organized the Neuro-Imaging Platform (NIMG-PF) committee, whose members are drawn from 18 Japanese research sites, as an activity of Neuroinformatics Japan Center (NIJC) at RIKEN, and are constructing a database of non-invasive brain function measurements for beginners and specialists. We are gathering the content related to various neuroimaging technologies such as MRI, MEG, EEG, PET, and NIRS, and their integrations: bibliographies of research papers, tutorial materials, software content, experimental data, and related information. About 200 pieces of content have already been registered. NIMG-PF is constructed on a base-platform, XooNIps, on which users can search contents by selecting indices, items, or keywords. Furthermore, we are developing convenient tools for visualizing 3D-brain images and for information searches that work by the user pointing to locations on the images. In NIMG-PF, any user can register their original content and use content if they accept the permission conditions. NIMG-PF will open later this year.
