Topological Features of Brain Functional Networks Are Reorganized During Chronic Tinnitus: A Graph-Theoretical Study

Reorganization of Topological Features in Brain Functional Networks in Patients with Chronic Tinnitus Academic Background Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the absence of any external acoustic stimuli or internal sources of auditory perception, with a global prevalence ranging from 11.9% to 30.3%. Patients with tinnitus experience not only aud...

Smart (Splitting‑Merging Assisted Reliable) Independent Component Analysis for Extracting Accurate Brain Functional Networks

Smart Independent Component Analysis (SMART ICA): An Innovative Method for Extracting Accurate Brain Functional Networks Background Introduction In brain science research, Functional Networks (FNs) show great potential for understanding human brain function by exploring the integration and interaction relationships between different brain regions. ...
