In order to understand the complex cognitive functions of the human brain, it is essential to study the structural connectome, i.e., the wiring of different brain regions to each other through axonal pathways. However, the high degree of…

The paper deals with a random connection model, a random graph whose vertices are given by a homogeneous Poisson point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$, and edges are independently drawn with probability depending on the locations of the two end…

We consider the behavior of spatial point processes when subjected to a class of linear transformations indexed by a variable T. It was shown in Ellis [Adv. in Appl. Probab. 18 (1986) 646-659] that, under mild assumptions, the transformed…

Most neural models of causality assume static causal graphs, failing to capture the dynamic and sparse nature of physical interactions where causal relationships emerge and dissolve over time. We introduce the Causal Process Framework and…
