We introduce a new processing method for
cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) data known as shift-invariant dictionary
learning (SIDL). We show that measurements of CVR magnitude and CVR delay
obtained with SIDL are comparable to standard processing.

Comparison of CVR magnitudes (A) and delays (B) obtained with SIDL and GLM. The
outliers are labelled as outlier 1 and 2.
