Bayes Network Classifiers for fMRI
نویسنده
چکیده
Classifying human cognitive states using fMRI data is an interesting and challenging problem that would guide us to better understanding about human brain. In this paper we introduce TAN classifier to distinguish whether subjects are examining a sentence or a picture. Experiments show that using this TAN classifiers provides significantly better results than using Naive Bayes classifiers.

Optimal Bayes Classifiers for Functional Data and Density Ratios
Bayes classifiers for functional data pose a challenge. This is because probability density functions do not exist for functional data. As a consequence, the classical Bayes classifier using density quotients needs to be modified. We propose to use density ratios of projections on a sequence of eigenfunctions that are common to the groups to be classified. The density ratios can then be factore...
متن کاملFloating search algorithm for structure learning of Bayesian network classifiers
This paper presents a floating search approach for learning the network structure of Bayesian network classifiers. A Bayesian network classifier is used which in combination with the search algorithm allows simultaneous feature selection and determination of the structure of the classifier. The introduced search algorithm enables conditional exclusions of previously added attributes and/or arcs...
متن کاملReasoning about Bayesian Network Classifiers
Bayesian network classifiers are used in many fields, and one common class of classifiers are naive Bayes classifiers. In this paper, we introduce an approach for reasoning about Bayesian network classifiers in which we explicitly convert them into Ordered Decision Diagrams (ODDs), which are then used to reason about the properties of these classifiers. Specifically, we present an algorithm for...
متن کاملBayesian network classifiers which perform well with continuous attributes: Flexible classifiers
When modelling a probability distribution with a Bayesian network, we are faced with the problem of how to handle continuous variables. Most previous works have solved the problem by discretizing them with the consequent loss of information. Another common alternative assumes that the data are generated by a Gaussian distribution (parametric approach), such as conditional Gaussian networks, wit...
متن کاملDecoding Cognitive States from fMRI Timeseries
Conventional analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data follows a regression-based approach, in which one identifies the neural correlates of a particular cognitive function by correlating individual voxel timecourses with a known pattern of stimulus presentations. However, one can reverse the direction of analysis; rather than using knowledge of the stimulus pattern to infer...
