Extended Data Fig. 3: Comparisons of normative references by GAMLSS and HBR framework.
From: Charting brain morphology in international healthy and neurological populations

a, The normative references fitted by GAMLSS and HBR framework. The units are \(\times {10}^{4}{{mm}}^{3}\) for volume measures, \(\times {10}^{4}{{mm}}^{2}\) for area measure, and \({mm}\) for thickness measure. b, The Z-scores across the site in GAMLSS and HBR fitting (n = 105 sites), the closer the median value to zero, the better the site effects mitigated. c, The classification AUC maps of each paired sites (n = 105 sites). The closer the AUCs to zero, the better the site effects mitigated. Note: GMV, gray matter volume, sGMV, subcortical gray matter volume; WMV, white matter volume; CSF, cerebrospinal fluid; GAMLSS, generalized additive models for location, scale, and shape; HBR, hierarchical Bayesian regression; AUC, area under the curve.
