Proposed Analysis:	I am developing a novel Bayesian approach for analyzing brain imaging data that should be able to both infer about the structural effects of ADHD and predict diagnosis of the disease. This relies on a tensor decomposition first proposed by Ledyard Tucker in 1927. I hope to compare my method to that of other researchers and improve upon current diagnostic tools. In addition, I plan on publishing the software used to implement the model so that other researchers may use my methods.
