AbstractThe investigation of brain networks has yielded many insights that have helped to characterise many neurological and psychiatric disorders. In particular, network classification of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data is an important tool for the identification of prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers of brain connectivity disorders such as schizophrenia and depression. However, existing generic network classification methods provide no direct information on the underlying molecular mechanisms of the selected functional connectivity features when applied to fMRI data. To address this, we propose a novel fMRI network classification method that incor-porates brain transcriptional data using a user-specified gene set collection (GSC) to construct feature groups for use in classification of brain connectivity data. The use of GSCs are an opportunity to incorporate knowledge of potential molecular mechanisms which may be associated with a disease. The inclusion of transcriptional data yields improved prediction accuracy on publicly available schizophrenia fMRI data for several of the GSCs we consider. We also introduce a post-hoc interpretation framework to provide transcriptional-data-guided biological interpretations for discriminative functional connectivity features identified by existing fMRI network classification methods.

Study of functional brain network (FBN) based on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has proved successful in depression disorder classification. One popular approach to construct FBN is Pearson correlation. However, it only captures pairwise relationship between brain regions, while it ignores the influence of other brain regions. Another common issue existing in many depression disorder classification methods is applying only single local feature extracted from constructed FBN. To address these issues, we develop a new method to classify fMRI data of patients with depression and healthy controls. First, we construct the FBN using a sparse low-rank model, which considers the relationship between two brain regions given all the other brain regions. Moreover, it can automatically remove weak relationship and retain the modular structure of FBN. Secondly, FBN are effectively measured by eight graph-based features from different aspects. Tested on fMRI data of 31 patients with depression and 29 healthy controls, our method achieves 95% accuracy, 96.77% sensitivity, and 93.10% specificity, which outperforms the Pearson correlation FBN and sparse FBN. In addition, the combination of graph-based features in our method further improves classification performance. Moreover, we explore the discriminative brain regions that contribute to depression disorder classification, which can help understand the pathogenesis of depression disorder.

mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a condition between healthy elderly people and alzheimer's disease (AD). At present, brain network analysis based on machine learning methods can help diagnose MCI. In this paper, the brain network is divided into several subnets based on the shortest path,and the feature vectors of each subnet are extracted and classified. In order to make full use of subnet information, this paper adopts integrated classification model for classification.Each base classification model can predict the classification of a subnet,and the classification results of all subnets are calculated as the classification results of brain network.In order to verify the effectiveness of this method,a brain network of 66 people was constructed and a comparative experiment was carried out.The experimental results show that the classification accuracy of the integrated classification model proposed in this paper is 19% higher than that of SVM,which effectively improves the classification accuracy

Analysis of resting state - functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rs-fMRI) data has been a challenging problem due to a high homogeneity, large intra-class variability, limited samples and difference in acquisition technologies/techniques. These issues are predominant in the case of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In this paper, we propose a new Deep Transformation Method (DTM) that extracts the discriminant latent feature space from rsfMRI and projects it in the subsequent layer for classification of rs-fMRI data. The hidden transformation layer in DTM projects the original rs-fMRI data into a new space using the learning policy and extracts the spatio-temporal correlations of the functional activities as a latent feature space. The subsequent convolution and decision layers transform the latent feature space into high-level features and provide accurate classification. The performance of DTM has been evaluated using the ADHD200 rs-fMRI benchmark data with crossvalidation. The results show that the proposed DTM achieves a mean classification accuracy of 70.36% and an improvement of 8.25% on the state of the art methodologies was observed. The improvement is due to concurrent analysis of the spatio-temporal correlations between the different regions of the brain and can be easily extended to study other cognitive disorders using rs-fMRI. Further, brain network analysis has been studied to identify the difference in functional activities and the corresponding regions behind cognitive symptoms in ADHD.
