Uncertainty in fMRI Functional Networks of Autism Brain Imaging Data

In this paper we review the preprocessing pipeline through which fMRI data is transformed into a network. We discuss three parameters that mostly affect our understanding of the existence of functional correlations between the brain regions. In the end, we conclude that the existence of functional correlations between pairs of the brain's regions can be modeled with probabilistic edges, not to lose the uncertainty that is inherent in the network generation process.
