Segmentation of structural and diffusion MRI (sMRI/dMRI) is usually performed independently in neuroimaging pipelines. However, some brain structures (e.g., globus pallidus, thalamus and its nuclei) can be extracted more accurately by…

Neuroimaging data, particularly from techniques like MRI or PET, offer rich but complex information about brain structure and activity. To manage this complexity, latent representation models - such as Autoencoders, Generative Adversarial…

Optical imaging of the brain has expanded dramatically in the past two decades. New optics, indicators, and experimental paradigms are now enabling in-vivo imaging from the synaptic to the cortex-wide scales. To match the resulting flood of…

Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) encompasses transcranial stimulation techniques that can influence brain excitability. These techniques have the potential to treat conditions like depression, anxiety, and chronic pain, and to provide…

Neural Networks (NNs) have provided state-of-the-art results for many challenging machine learning tasks such as detection, regression and classification across the domains of computer vision, speech recognition and natural language…

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…

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…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a remarkably powerful diagnostic technique: it generates wide-ranging information for the non-invasive study of tissue anatomy and physiology. Complementary data is normally obtained in separate…

We investigate whether and how we can improve the cost efficiency of neuroimaging studies with well-tailored fMRI tasks. The comparative study is conducted using a novel network science-driven Bayesian connectome-based predictive method,…

We organized a workshop on the "Present and Future Frameworks of Theoretical Neuroscience", with the support of the National Science Foundation. The objective was to identify the challenges and strategies that this field will need to tackle…

The paper discusses the use of MRI for segmentation techniques, specifically focusing on brain tumor detection. It discusses the use of convolutional neural networks (CNN) for automatic segmentation but also discusses challenges such as…

Software design impacts much of statistical analysis and, as technology changes, dramatically so in recent years, it is exciting to learn how statistical software is adapting and changing. This leads to the collection of papers published…

Resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) is a rich imaging modality that captures spontaneous brain activity patterns, revealing clues about the connectomic organization of the human brain. While many rs-fMRI studies have focused on static…

Neuroimaging research has predominantly drawn conclusions based on classical statistics, including null-hypothesis testing, t-tests, and ANOVA. Throughout recent years, statistical learning methods enjoy increasing popularity, including…

Neuroscience research has evolved to generate increasingly large and complex experimental data sets, and advanced data science tools are taking on central roles in neuroscience research. Neurodata Without Borders (NWB), a standard language…

This article provides a brief overview of statistical network analysis, a rapidly evolving field of statistics, which encompasses statistical models, algorithms, and inferential methods for analyzing data in the form of networks. Particular…

The introduction of graph theory in neuroimaging has pro- vided invaluable tools for the study of brain connectivity. These methods require the definition of a graph, which is typically derived by estimating the effective connectivity…

Statistical neurodynamics studies macroscopic behaviors of randomly connected neural networks. We consider a deep layered feedforward network where input signals are processed layer by layer. The manifold of input signals is embedded in a…

This paper models the dynamics of a large set of interacting neurons within the framework of statistical field theory. We use a method initially developed in the context of statistical field theory [44] and later adapted to complex systems…

There is growing interest in understanding how the structural interconnections among brain regions change with the occurrence of neurological diseases. Diffusion weighted MRI imaging has allowed researchers to non-invasively estimate a…
