Souheil Inati & Pablo Velasco, NYU Center for Brain Imaging Souheil Inati will present a new method for functional to structural registration based on a multi-echo gradient echo B0 and T2* mapping calibration scan. This 2-3 minute calibration scan be easily added on to existing FMRI protocols. Pablo Velasco will give a brief demonstration the new realtime data monitoring tool. |

Rahul Garg, IBM Watson Research Center "Modeling Brain as a Dynamical System using the Granger Causality Analysis." Novel techniques to analyze fMRI data has enabled newer experimental paradigms. For example, using functional connectivity analysis it is possible to analyze the interpret data from experiments involving resting state, virtual reality games, watching movies, listening to music etc. Several machine learning approaches have been used to predict behavior using fMRI data. These techniques are able to extract complex patterns of brain activity from fMRI data and provide additional scientific insights. In this talk I will describe our machine-learning based techniques including the Granger causality analysis that may be used to model brain as a dynamic system. These techniques are based on sparse regression and multivariate autoregressive modeling. We show that it is possible to extract additional information about brain function which is not accssible using the standard analysis techniques. |
