Recently, there has been increased interest in fusing multimodal imaging to better understand brain organization. Specifically, accounting for knowledge of anatomical pathways connecting brain regions should lead to desirable outcomes such…
Cognitive diagnostic assessment aims to measure specific knowledge structures in students. To model data arising from such assessments, cognitive diagnostic models with discrete latent variables have gained popularity in educational and…
Progress in neuroscience has provided unprecedented opportunities to advance our understanding of brain alterations and their correspondence to phenotypic profiles. With data collected from various imaging techniques, studies have…
Converging evidence indicates that the heterogeneity of cognitive profiles may arise through detectable alternations in brain functions. Particularly, brain functional connectivity, measured under resting and cognitive states, characterizes…
Estimating a representative and discriminative brain network atlas (BNA) is a nascent research field in mapping a population of brain networks in health and disease. Although limited, existing BNA estimation methods have several…
Targeted stimulation of the brain has the potential to treat mental illnesses. We propose an approach to help design the stimulation protocol by identifying electrical dynamics across many brain regions that relate to illness states. We…
Motivation: Recent advances in technology for brain imaging and high-throughput genotyping have motivated studies examining the influence of genetic variation on brain structure. Wang et al. (Bioinformatics, 2012) have developed an approach…
We introduce a network-based AI framework for predicting dimensions of psychopathology in adolescents using natural language. We focused on data capturing psychometric scores of social maladjustment, internalizing behaviors, and…
Subtle alterations in brain network topology often evade detection by traditional statistical methods. To address this limitation, we introduce a Bayesian inference framework for topological comparison of brain networks that…
Network data are increasingly collected along with other variables of interest. Our motivation is drawn from neurophysiology studies measuring brain connectivity networks for a sample of individuals along with their membership to a low or…
A key goal of unsupervised learning is to go beyond density estimation and sample generation to reveal the structure inherent within observed data. Such structure can be expressed in the pattern of interactions between explanatory latent…
It has been estimated that about 30% of the genes in the human genome are regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs). These are short RNA sequences that can down-regulate the levels of mRNAs or proteins in animals and plants. Genes regulated by miRNAs…
Network inference has been extensively studied in several fields, such as systems biology and social sciences. Learning network topology and internal dynamics is essential to understand mechanisms of complex systems. In particular, sparse…
Nearly one in five adolescents currently live with a diagnosed mental or behavioral health condition, such as anxiety, depression, or conduct disorder, underscoring the urgency of developing accurate and interpretable diagnostic tools.…
Genetic association studies for brain connectivity phenotypes have gained prominence due to advances in non-invasive imaging techniques and quantitative genetics. Brain connectivity traits, characterized by network configurations and unique…
Inferring synaptic connectivity from neural population activity is a fundamental challenge in computational neuroscience, complicated by partial observability and mismatches between inference models and true circuit dynamics. In this study,…
Integrating high-dimensional, heterogeneous data from multi-site cohort studies with complex hierarchical structures poses significant feature selection and prediction challenges. We extend the Bayesian Integrative Analysis and Prediction…
Brain structural connectivity, capturing the white matter fiber tracts among brain regions inferred by diffusion MRI (dMRI), provides a unique characterization of brain anatomical organization. One fundamental question to address with…
Most functional magnetic resonance imaging studies rely on estimates of hierarchically organized functional brain networks whose segregation and integration reflect the cognitive and behavioral changes in humans. However, most existing…
Recent advancements in medicine have confirmed that brain disorders often comprise multiple subtypes of mechanisms, developmental trajectories, or severity levels. Such heterogeneity is often associated with demographic aspects (e.g., sex)…
