The global functional brain network (graph) is more suitable for characterizing brain states than local analysis of the connectivity of brain regions. Therefore, graph-theoretic approaches are the natural methods to study the brain.…

Inferring a binary connectivity graph from resting-state fMRI data for a single subject requires making several methodological choices and assumptions that can significantly affect the results. In this study, we investigate the robustness…
