A Semiparametric Bayesian Model for Detecting Synchrony Among Multiple Neurons

Authors: Babak Shahbaba, Bo Zhou, Shiwei Lan, Hernando Ombao, David Moorman, Sam Behseta

arXiv

We propose a scalable semiparametric Bayesian model to capture dependencies among multiple neurons by detecting their co-firing (possibly with some lag time) patterns over time. After discretizing tim...

Noncontextuality with Marginal Selectivity in Reconstructing Mental Architectures

Authors: Ru Zhang, Ehtibar N. Dzhafarov

arXiv

We present a general theory of series-parallel mental architectures with selectively influenced stochastically non-independent components. A mental architecture is a hypothetical network of processes...

Bayesian Inference of Whole-Brain Networks

Authors: M. Hinne, T. Heskes, M. A. J. van Gerven

arXiv

In structural brain networks the connections of interest consist of white-matter fibre bundles between spatially segregated brain regions. The presence, location and orientation of these white matter...

Modelling hippocampal neurogenesis across the lifespan in seven species

Authors: Stanley E. Lazic

arXiv

The aim of this study was to estimate the number of new cells and neurons added to the dentate gyrus across the lifespan, and to compare the rate of age-associated decline in neurogenesis across speci...

Inferring health conditions from fMRI-graph data

Authors: PierGianLuca Porta Mana, Claudia Bachmann, Abigail Morrison

arXiv

Automated classification methods for disease diagnosis are currently in the limelight, especially for imaging data. Classification does not fully meet a clinician's needs, however: in order to combine...

Gaussian graphical models reveal inter-modal and inter-regional conditional dependencies of brain alterations in Alzheimer's disease

Authors: Martin Dyrba, Reza Mohammadi, Michel J. Grothe, Thomas Kirste, Stefan J. Teipel

arXiv

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by a sequence of pathological changes, which are commonly assessed in vivo using MRI and PET. Currently, the most approaches to analyze statistical associatio...

Groupwise Structural Parcellation of the Cortex: A Sound Approach Based on Logistic Models

Authors: Guillermo Gallardo, William Wells, Rachid Deriche, Demian Wassermann

arXiv

Current theories hold that brain function is highly related to long-range physical connections through axonal bundles, namely extrinsic connectiv-ity. However, obtaining a groupwise cortical parcellat...

Corrections for multiple comparisons in voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping

Authors: Daniel Mirman, Jon-Frederick Landrigan, Spiro Kokolis, Sean Verillo, Casey Ferrara, Dorian Pustina

arXiv

Voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping (VLSM) is an important method for basic and translational human neuroscience research. VLSM leverages modern neuroimaging analysis techniques to build on the classic...

Discrete Dynamic Causal Modeling and Its Relationship with Directed Information

Authors: Zhe Wang, Yu Zheng, David C. Zhu, Jian Ren, Tongtong Li

arXiv

This paper explores the discrete Dynamic Causal Modeling (DDCM) and its relationship with Directed Information (DI). We prove the conditional equivalence between DDCM and DI in characterizing the caus...

DeepGaze II: Reading fixations from deep features trained on object recognition

Authors: Matthias KĂŒmmerer, Thomas S. A. Wallis, Matthias Bethge

arXiv

Here we present DeepGaze II, a model that predicts where people look in images. The model uses the features from the VGG-19 deep neural network trained to identify objects in images. Contrary to other...

Fast Online Deconvolution of Calcium Imaging Data

Authors: Johannes Friedrich, Pengcheng Zhou, Liam Paninski

arXiv

Fluorescent calcium indicators are a popular means for observing the spiking activity of large neuronal populations, but extracting the activity of each neuron from raw fluorescence calcium imaging da...

Exploring brain transcriptomic patterns: a topological analysis using spatial expression networks

Authors: Zhana Kuncheva, Michelle L. Krishnan, Giovanni Montana

arXiv

Characterizing the transcriptome architecture of the human brain is fundamental in gaining an understanding of brain function and disease. A number of recent studies have investigated patterns of brai...

A Spatiotemporal Dynamic Solution to the MEG Inverse Problem: An Empirical Bayes Approach

Authors: Camilo Lamus, Matti S. HÀmÀlÀinen, Simona Temereanca, Emery N. Brown, Patrick L. Purdon

arXiv

MEG/EEG are non-invasive imaging techniques that record brain activity with high temporal resolution. However, estimation of brain source currents from surface recordings requires solving an ill-posed...

Cortical Geometry Network and Topology Markers for Parkinson's Disease

Authors: Amanmeet Garg, Donghuan Lu, Karteek Popuri, Mirza Faisal Beg

arXiv

Neurodegeneration affects cortical gray matter leading to loss of cortical mantle volume. As a result of such volume loss, the geometrical arrangement of the regions on the cortical surface is expecte...
