Quantifying Uncertainty in Brain Network Measures using Bayesian Connectomics

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2014
The wiring diagram of the human brain can be described in terms of graph measures that characterize structural regularities. These measures require an estimate of whole-brain structural connectivity for which one may resort to deterministic or ...
