Bayesian inference of structural brain networks
Structural brain networks are used to model white-matter connectivity between spatially segregated brain regions. The presence, location and orientation of these white matter tracts can be derived using diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in combination with probabilistic tractography. Unfortunately, as of yet, none of the existing approaches provide an undisputed way of inferring bra...
متن کاملBayesian Inference of Whole-Brain Networks
In structural brain networks the connections of interest consist of white-matter fibre bundles between spatially segregated brain regions. The presence, location and orientation of these white matter tracts can be derived using diffusion MRI in combination with probabilistic tractography. Unfortunately, as of yet no approaches have been suggested that provide an undisputed way of inferring brai...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Inference and Learning in Bayesian Networks
Bayesian networks (BNs) are modern tools for modeling phenomena in dynamic and static systems and are used in different subjects such as disease diagnosis, weather forecasting, decision making and clustering. A BN is a graphical-probabilistic model which represents causal relations among random variables and consists of a directed acyclic graph and a set of conditional probabilities. Structure...
متن کاملBayesian inference of structural brain networks with region-specific Dirichlet parametrisation
In this paper we present an extension to a Bayesian framework for inference of structural brain networks. This framework provides a generative model that explicitely describes how structural brain networks lead to observed streamline distributions. Our extension consists of adding a hyperprior on the latent Dirichlet variables, such that we can capture global and region-specific behaviour withi...
متن کاملInference in Bayesian Networks :
Three kinds of independence are of interest in the context of Bayesian networks, namely conditional independence, independence of causal in uence, and context-speci c independence. It is well-known that conditional independence enables one to factorize a joint probability into a list of conditional probabilities and thereby renders inference feasible. It has recently been shown that independenc...
