Optimizing Functional Network Representation of Multivariate Time Series

Abstract: By combining complex network theory and data mining techniques, we provide objective criteria for optimization of the functional network representation of generic multivariate time series. In particular, we propose a method for the principled selection of the threshold value for functional network reconstruction from raw data, and for proper identification of the network's indicators that unveil the most discriminative information on the system for classification purposes. We illustrate our method by analysing… Show more

“…The amount of information codified in each network can be approximated by the success score achieved in a classification task, where a model is trained to identify subjects belonging to the two considered classes [93]. Not only does this strategy allow identifying the combinations of properties obtaining higher classification scores, but it also affords a quantitative assessment of the degree to which these properties actually discriminate between different experimental conditions.…”

“…How to best segment or parcellate the anatomical space and how to accurately sample the underlying dynamical system are two of the main issues encountered. Functional connectivity is generally defined using statistical relationships between activity recorded at different brain sites or sensors, but there is as yet no universally accepted criterion for choosing the most appropriate metric of brain activity out of the set of available ones, and the question of how different connectivity metrics affect the topological properties of the resulting networks is still poorly understood [28,29].…”
