Causal Modelling and Brain Connectivity in Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Author

Listed:
  • Karl Friston

Abstract

Recent advances in data analysis and modeling allow the use of fMRI data to ask not just which brain regions are involved in various cognitive and perceptual tasks, but also how they communicate with each other. Karl Friston examines two different state-of-the-art approaches to modeling brain connectivity using neuroimaging.
