brede_str_str2woroi - Try to convert a string to a WOROI
woroi = brede_str_str2woroi(s)
Input: s String or cellstring
Output: woroi WOROI identifiers as integers
Persistent: MROI Variable storing Names of brain regions
This function will try to convert a string that should
represent a neuroanatomical term into a WOROI, ie, the
identifier used in the Brede Database brain region ontology.
Multiple strings might be inputted to the function. If a match
is not found a NaN is returned for the specific element.
The Brede Database is read with the brede_bdb function.
Examples:
brede_str_str2woroi('Caudate') % This should return 39
woroi = brede_str_str2woroi('posterior cingulate')
url = brede_url_woroi(woroi)
web(url, '-browser')
% With the Brede Database as 'B'
s = brede_struct_select(B{1}.Exp{1}.Loc, 'select', 'lobarAnatomy')
worois = brede_str_str2woroi(s)
