Exploring Heritability of Functional Brain Networks with Inexact Graph Matching
Data-driven brain parcellations aim to provide a more accurate representation of an individual's functional connectivity, since they are able to capture individual variability that arises due to development or disease. This renders comparisons between the emerging brain connectivity networks more challenging, since correspondences between their elements are not preserved. Unveiling these correspondences is of major importance to keep track of local functional connectivity changes. We propose a novel method based on graph edit distance for the comparison of brain graphs directly in their domain, that can accurately reflect similarities between individual networks while providing the network element correspondences. This method is validated on a dataset of 116 twin subjects provided by the Human Connectome Project.

Mapping Heritability of Large-Scale Brain Networks with a Billion Connections {\em via} Persistent Homology
In many human brain network studies, we do not have sufficient number (n) of images relative to the number (p) of voxels due to the prohibitively expensive cost of scanning enough subjects. Thus, brain network models usu…
