Paper analyzes shapes of brain arterial networks using statistical methods.
Purpose: Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) is a quantitative, non-invasive alternative to perfusion imaging with contrast agents. Fixing values of certain model parameters in traditional ASL, which actually vary from region to region, may introduce bias in perfusion estimates. Adopting Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF…
Automated labeling of intracranial arteries improves accuracy and efficiency.
Predicting traffic incident duration is a major challenge for many traffic centres around the world. Most research studies focus on predicting the incident duration on motorways rather than arterial roads, due to a high network complexity and lack of data. In this paper we propose a bi-level framework for predicting th…
We present hidden fluid mechanics (HFM), a physics informed deep learning framework capable of encoding an important class of physical laws governing fluid motions, namely the Navier-Stokes equations. In particular, we seek to leverage the underlying conservation laws (i.e., for mass, momentum, and energy) to infer hid…

There has been huge interest in studying human brain connectomes inferred from different imaging modalities and exploring their relationship with human traits, such as cognition. Brain connectomes are usually represented as networks, with nodes corresponding to different regions of interest (ROIs) and edges to connecti…
In many human brain network studies, we do not have sufficient number (n) of images relative to the number (p) of voxels due to the prohibitively expensive cost of scanning enough subjects. Thus, brain network models usually suffer the small-n large-p problem. Such a problem is often remedied by sparse network models, …
SM-netFusion estimates brain network atlas by considering multiple topological measures.
Functional connectivity refers to the temporal statistical relationship between spatially distinct brain regions and is usually inferred from the time series coherence/correlation in brain activity between regions of interest. In human functional brain networks, the network structure is often inferred from functional m…

However recent results suggest that the connectivity between brain …
STCA discovers dynamic functional brain networks using spatial-temporal convolution and attention.
Learning a similarity metric has gained much attention recently, where the goal is to learn a function that maps input patterns to a target space while preserving the semantic distance in the input space. While most related work focused on images, we focus instead on learning a similarity metric for neuroimages, such a…
