This file contains a MATLAB implementation of the statistical model for 
between-subjects flow variability model. The model was trained in a cohort 
of 103 middle-aged and elderly subjects as part of adementia study 
conducted within the VPH-SHARE@IT FP7 project.

The program generates virtual waveforms representing internal carotid
waveform variability. The model was trained in a cohort of 103 middle-
aged and elderly subjects as part of  adementia study conducted within 
the VPH-SHARE@IT FP7 project. It is intended only for research purposes.
