A fast-paced development of DeepFake generation techniques challenge the detection schemes designed for known type DeepFakes. A reliable Deepfake detection approach must be agnostic to generation types, which can present diverse quality and…
Complex functional brain network analyses have exploded over the last eight years, gaining traction due to their profound clinical implications. The application of network science (an interdisciplinary offshoot of graph theory) has…
Covariance matrices of random vectors contain information that is crucial for modelling. Specific structures and patterns of the covariances (or correlations) may be used to justify parametric models, e.g., autoregressive models. Until now,…
Most brain disorders are very heterogeneous in terms of their underlying biology and developing analysis methods to model such heterogeneity is a major challenge. A promising approach is to use probabilistic regression methods to estimate…
In medical, ecological and psychological research, there is a need for methods to handle multiple testing, for example to consider group comparisons with more than two groups. Typical approaches that deal with multiple testing are mean or…
Brain decoding is a hot spot in cognitive science, which focuses on reconstructing perceptual images from brain activities. Analyzing the correlations of collected data from human brain activities and representing activity patterns are two…
Standard fMRI connectivity analyses depend on aggregating the time series of individual voxels within regions of interest (ROIs). In certain cases, this spatial aggregation implies a loss of valuable functional and anatomical information…
The increasing availability of multiple network data has highlighted the need for statistical models for heterogeneous populations of networks. A convenient framework makes use of metrics to measure similarity between networks. In this…
Understanding the interplay between high-dimensional data from different views is essential in biomedical research, particularly in fields such as genomics, neuroimaging and biobank-scale studies involving high-dimensional features.…
Two-sample hypothesis testing for large graphs is popular in cognitive science, probabilistic machine learning and artificial intelligence. While numerous methods have been proposed in the literature to address this problem, less attention…
In signal processing, exploring complex systems through network representations has become an area of growing interest. This study introduces the modularity graph, a new graph-based feature, to highlight the relationship across the graph…
Longitudinal brain imaging data facilitate the monitoring of structural and functional alterations in individual brains across time, offering essential understanding of dynamic neurobiological mechanisms. Such data improve sensitivity for…
When drawing causal inferences about the effects of multiple treatments on clustered survival outcomes using observational data, we need to address implications of the multilevel data structure, multiple treatments, censoring and unmeasured…
Precision matrix, which is the inverse of covariance matrix, plays an important role in statistics, as it captures the partial correlation between variables. Testing the equality of two precision matrices in high dimensional setting is a…
Approaches for testing sets of variants, such as a set of rare or common variants within a gene or pathway, for association with complex traits are important. In particular, set tests allow for aggregation of weak signal within a set, can…
Recent studies in neuroscience highlight the significant potential of brain connectivity networks, which are commonly constructed from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data for brain disorder diagnosis. Traditional brain…
Multiple tests are designed to test a whole collection of null hypotheses simultaneously. Their quality is often judged by the false discovery rate (FDR), i.e. the expectation of the quotient of the number of false rejections divided by the…
We consider the problem of precision matrix estimation where, due to extraneous confounding of the underlying precision matrix, the data are independent but not identically distributed. While such confounding occurs in many scientific…
Objective: In recent years, the functional connectivity of the human brain has been studied with graph theoretical tools. One such approach is community detection which is fundamental for uncovering the localized networks. Existing methods…
Biometric recognition is used across a variety of applications from cyber security to border security. Recent research has focused on ensuring biometric performance (false negatives and false positives) is fair across demographic groups.…
