% function computeAllPrediction_batchVASARI_LGG(pathExperiments,maxOrder,nBoot,imbalance,nBatch,matlabPATH,seed)
% -------------------------------------------------------------------------
% DESCRIPTION: 
% This function computes prediction performance estimation for a given 
% feature set type, and for all model orders of all experiments with 
% different degrees of freedom. See ref. [1] for more details.

%     MRI texture features for the prediction of lung metastases in soft-tissue 
%     sarcomas of the extremities. Physics in Medicine and Biology, 60(14),

% INPUTS:
% 1. pathExperiments: Full path to where all experiments need to be
%                     performed.
%                     --> Ex: /myProject/WORKSPACE/VASARI
% 2. maxOrder: Integer specifying the maximal model order to construct.
%              --> Ex: 10
% 3. nBoot: Number of bootstrap samples to use.
%           --> Ex: 100
% 4. imbalance: String specifying the type of imbalance-adjustement strategy
%               employed. Either 'IABR' for imbalance-adjusted bootstrap
%               resampling (see ref.[1]), or 'IALR' for imbalance-adjusted
%               logistic regression (formal reference to come).
%               --> Ex: 'IALR'
% 5. nBatch: Number of parallel batch.
%            --> Ex: 8
% 6. matlabPATH: Full path to the MATLAB executable on the system.
%                --> 'matlab' if a symbolic link to the matlab executable
%                     was previously created.
% 7. seed: Random generator seed for reproducibility of experiments.
% -------------------------------------------------------------------------
% OUTPUTS: Prediction performance results are saved in a folder named 'RESULTS' in the
% corresponding folder of 'pathExperiments'.
