Visualization of the morphometric abnormalities in the right intraparietal sulcus. Color maps represent the weight vector score (A). B, Outlines of the cortical surface for ASD (red) and control (blue) group. This main discriminating factor in this group was an increase in sulcal depth in ASDs relative to controls. Differences in sulcal depth for this ROI are shown for both groups in C. D, Morphometric profile for this region. Profiles were derived by averaging the weight vector scores across vertices within this region of interest, and for the different morphometric parameters. Weights were identified on the basis of the concatenated SVM model, thus showing the relative contribution of parameters in this ROI.
