Abstract:
Schizophrenia is a brain disorder leading to detached mind’s normally integrated processes. Hence, the exploration of the symptoms in relation to functional connectivity (FC) had great relevance in the field. Connectivity can be investigated on different levels, going from global features to single edges between pairs of regions, revealing diffuse and localized dysconnection patterns. In this context, schizophrenia is characterized by a different global integration with reduced connectivity in specific areas of the brain, part of the Default Mode Network (DMN).

Abstract:
Studies on developing effective neuromarkers based on magnetoencephalographic (MEG) signals have been drawing increasing attention in the neuroscience community. This study explores the idea of using source-based magnitude-squared spectral coherence as a spatial indicator for effective regions of interest (ROIs) localization, subsequently discriminating the participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from a group of age-matched healthy control (HC) elderly participants. We found that the cortical regions could be divided into two distinctive groups based on their coherence indices. Compa

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the impact of complexity on the triple bottom line by applying information-processing theory. Specifically, the paper assesses the impact of internal manufacturing complexity on environmental, social, and financial performance. Furthermore, the paper assesses the moderating role of connectivity and shared schema in reducing the potential negative impact of complexity on performance. Design/methodology/approach Multi-country survey data collected through the Global Manufacturing Research Group were utilized to test the hypotheses.

Abstract There are a growing number of neuroimaging studies motivating joint structural and functional brain connectivity. Brain connectivity of different modalities provides insight into brain functional organization by leveraging complementary information, especially for brain disorders such as schizophrenia. In this paper, we propose a multi-modal independent component analysis (ICA) model that utilizes information from both structural and functional brain connectivity guided by spatial maps to estimate intrinsic connectivity networks (ICNs).

Abstract:
Abstract Due to the central role of landscape connectivity in many ecological processes, evaluating and accounting for it has gained attention in both theoretical and applied ecological sciences. To address this challenge, researchers often use generic species to simplify multi‐species connectivity assessments. Yet, this approach tends to oversimplify movement behaviour, likely reducing realism and precision of connectivity model outputs. Also, the most widely used methods and theories for assessing landscape connectivity, namely circuit and network theories, have strong limitations. Finally,

Abstract:
This study proposes a multi-consensus formation control algorithm by artificial potential field (APF) method based on velocity threshold. The algorithm improves the multi-consensus technique. This algorithm can split a group of agents into multiple agent groups. Note that the algorithm can easily complete the queue transformation as long as the entire proxy group is connected initially and no specific edges need to be removed. Furthermore, collision avoidance and maintenance of existing communication connectivity should be considered during the movement of all agents. Therefore, we design a ne

Abstract We study association between the structural connectivity and cognitive profiles using a multi-response nonparametric regression model. The cognitive profiles are quantified by seven cognitive test scores, and structural connectivity is represented by nine nodal attributes of connectivity graphs. These nodal centralities together encode different connectivity profiles in the brain network. Nodal attributes may be grouped together for each node, motivating us to introduce group sparsity for feature selection, and radial basis function (RBF)-nets are used to quantify the regression effec

AbstractUrbanization is commonly associated with biodiversity loss and habitat fragmentation. However, urban environments often have greenspaces that can support wildlife populations, including rare species. The challenge for conservation planners working in these systems is identifying priority habitats and corridors for protection before they are lost. In a rapidly changing urban environment, this requires prompt decisions informed by accurate spatial information. Here, we combine several approaches to map habitat and assess connectivity for a diverse set of rare species in seven urban study

Abstract Population analyses of functional connectivity have provided a rich understanding of how brain function differs across time, individual, and cognitive task. An important but challenging task in such population analyses is the identification of reliable features that describe the function of the brain, while accounting for individual heterogeneity. Our work is motivated by two particularly important challenges in this area: first, how can one analyze functional connectivity data over populations of individuals, and second, how can one use these analyses to infer group similarities and

Computational models of structural and effective connectivity amongst regions in the CCS were informed by cortical responses to the multi-source interference task, a paradigm that selectively introduces stimulus conflict.
