DBGDGM models dynamic brain graphs for better understanding brain function.
Unified framework detects dynamic community structure in brain networks across individuals.
Community structure in networks is observed in many different domains, and unsupervised community detection has received a lot of attention in the literature. Increasingly the focus of network analysis is shifting towards using network information in some other prediction or inference task rather than just analyzing th…
The paper characterizes brain states and transitions using functional MRI data.
Brain networks have received considerable attention given the critical significance for understanding human brain organization, for investigating neurological disorders and for clinical diagnostic applications. Structural brain network (e.g. DTI) and functional brain network (e.g. fMRI) are the primary networks of inte…
New method for analyzing brain dynamics using HMMs and graph models.
Schizophrenia, a mental disorder that is characterized by abnormal social behavior and failure to distinguish one's own thoughts and ideas from reality, has been associated with structural abnormalities in the architecture of functional brain networks. Using various methods from network analysis, we examine the effect …
Large bundles of myelinated axons, called white matter, anatomically connect disparate brain regions together and compose the structural core of the human connectome. We recently proposed a method of measuring the local integrity along the length of each white matter fascicle, termed the local connectome. If communicat…

Classical scalar-response regression methods treat covariates as a vector and estimate a corresponding vector of regression coefficients. In medical applications, however, regressors are often in a form of multi-dimensional arrays. For example, one may be interested in using MRI imaging to identify which brain regions …
Networks have been a general tool for representing, analyzing, and modeling relational data arising in several domains. One of the most important aspect of network analysis is community detection or network clustering. Until recently, the major focus have been on discovering community structure in single (i.e., monople…

This paper introduces a clustering framework for networks with nodes annotated with time-series data. The framework addresses all types of network-clustering problems: State clustering, node clustering within states (a.k.a. topology identification or community detection), and even subnetwork-state-sequence identificati…
The mesoscopic organization of complex systems, from financial markets to the brain, is an intermediate between the microscopic dynamics of individual units (stocks or neurons, in the mentioned cases), and the macroscopic dynamics of the system as a whole. The organization is determined by "communities" of units whose …
