A novel 15-network parcellation of the cerebral cortex, DU15NET, was constructed by estimating networks from functional MRI (fMRI) data in 15 intensively sampled participants (scanned 8-11 times). DU15NET atlases can function and be utilized in group-based studies as a significant update to the previous “Yeo2011” atlas with refinements that align with our current understanding of human cerebral network organization. To access the DU15NET atlases - please click on [[https://freesurfer.net/fswiki/CorticalParcellation_DU15NET?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=DU15NET.zip| this link]]. Upon downloading, you will find three subfolders corresponding to three different spaces: FreeSurfer, HCP, and MNI. Initially computed in FreeSurfer fsaverage6 space, the atlases were further sampled to fsaverage5 and fsaverage space. Additionally, they were projected to HCP fsLR_32k / fsLR_164k surface space and MNI volume space, broadening their utility across various neuroimaging contexts. Here we provide six types of files: DU15NET-Consensus, DU15NET-Consensus-Raw, DU15NET-Prior, DU15NET-Agree53, DU15NET-Agree80, DU15NET-AgreeProb, each described in detail below. For those in search of the primary atlas, please look for '''DU15NET-Consensus''' files. For example, the file path ./HCP/fsLR_32k/DU15NET_consensus_fsLR_32k.dscalar.nii represents the DU15NET atlas in HCP fsLR_32k surface space, formatted as CIFTI.

DU15NET-Consensus: A consensus map represents the assignment at each vertex to the most common network among the 15 individuals collected here. For many purposes, this atlas can function and be utilized in group-based studies as an update to the prior “Yeo2011” atlases with refinements that reflect our current understanding of human cerebral network organization. Given signal dropout near the sinuses and the inner ear, we manually created an uncertain 'network' in the orbitofrontal cortex and adjacent ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (VLPFC), rostral inferior temporal cortex, and the temporal pole, marked as dark grey, we recommend disregarding this 'network' in analyses using this atlas. The DU15NET-Consensus atlas differs from the DU15NET-Prior shown below in that it reflects the idiosyncratic features and spatial registrations of the data from the present participants, including small regions that are absent in the group-averaged estimates. For example, there is a clear representation of the SAL / PMN network in the medial prefrontal cortex.

DU15NET-Prior: The 15-network group prior used in the MS-HBM model is made available as the DU15NET-Prior atlas. The DU15NET-Prior utilizes the HCP data processed via their standard processing pipelines and thus has the benefit of being derived from data collected and registered with a commonly used set of pipelines.
DU15NET-Consensus-Raw: A consensus map represents the assignment at each vertex to the most common network among the 15 individuals collected here, ensuring that no vertex remains unassigned. This map directly reflects the combined outputs from the 15 individual maps collected in this study, , referencing 'DU15NET-Consensus' in both the main text and supplemental figures. The recommended DU15NET-Consensus is subsequently derived based on this map, following a few cleaning procedures outlined in the DU15NET-Consensus section above.
DU15NET-AgreeProb: The agreement atlas represents the probability at each vertex of the consistent assignment of the same network across individuals within our current sample of 15 participants. The DU15NET-Agree53 and DU15NET-Agree80 atlases provided below are derived from the DU15NET-Consensus-Raw atlas thresholded based on this agreement atlas.
DU15NET-Agree53: This agreement map is thresholded to leave only vertices with agreement across participants of n ≥ 8 (53%). The agreement atlases are particularly useful when the goal is to construct regions of interest that have a high probability of belonging to one network rather than another, in situations where it is appropriate to have regions that cover a portion of the cerebral cortex not the cortex in its entirety.
DU15NET-Agree80: This agreement map is thresholded to leave only vertices with agreement across participants of n ≥ 12 (80%).
Parcellations in Nonlinear MNI152 Volume Space
The DU15NET atlases are computed in fsaverage6 and sampled to volumetric MNI152 space. Each parcel was matched to a corresponding network in 15 network parcellation by Du et al. The projection used cortical ribbon which is defined by putting the FSL MNI152 1mm template through recon-all using FreeSurfer. The projection process has been consistently applied to all atlases mentioned above. Each atlas is provided in 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm MNI152 space versions. For example, DU15NET_consensus_MNI152_1mm.nii.gz represents the volume version of the DU15NET consensus atlas in MNI152 space at 1mm resolution.
