Does Physical Activity Influence Semantic Memory Activation in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment? [PDF]
The effect of physical activity (PA) on functional brain activation for semantic memory in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) was examined using event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging during fame discrimination.

Learning and comparing functional connectomes across subjects [PDF]
Functional connectomes capture brain interactions via synchronized fluctuations in the functional magnetic resonance imaging signal. If measured during rest, they map the intrinsic functional architecture of the brain.

Introduction to Brain and Medical Images [PDF]
This article is based on the first chapter of book Chung (2013), where brain and medical images are introduced. The most widely used brain imaging modalities are magnetic resonance images (MRI), functional-MRI (fMRI) and diffusion tensor images (DTI). A brief introduction to each imaging modality is explained.

Deep learning based pipeline for fingerprinting using brain functional MRI connectivity data [PDF]
In this work we describe an appropriate pipeline for using deep-learning as a form of improving the brain functional connectivity-based fingerprinting process which is based in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data-processing results.

Decreased Intrinsic Neural Timescales in Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
It is well established that epilepsy is characterized by the destruction of the information capacity of brain network and the interference with information processing in regions outside the epileptogenic focus.

Functional Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]
Functional diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (fDMRI) is a noninvasive technique that allows elucidating physiological and anatomical changes at a microscopic scale by detection of water molecular displacements in tissue structures. These displacements likely reflect microstructural changes associated with neuronal or glial cells activation.

Alternations in Dynamic and Static Functional Connectivity Density in Chronic Smokers
Previous studies have implicated abnormal functional coordination in brain regions of smokers. Neuroimaging studies demonstrated alternations in brain connectivity by using the resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) method which arbitrarily chooses

singR: An R package for Simultaneous non-Gaussian Component Analysis for data integration [PDF]
This paper introduces an R package that implements Simultaneous non-Gaussian Component Analysis for data integration. SING uses a non-Gaussian measure of information to extract feature loadings and scores (latent variables) that are shared across multiple datasets. We describe and implement functions through two examples.

Explore the effects of overweight and smoking on spontaneous brain activity: Independent and reverse
Accumulating evidence suggested that overweight and smoking often co-exist. However, current neuroimaging researches have almost always studied smoking or overweight status separately.

Single-spin scanning magnetic microscopy with radial basis function reconstruction algorithm [PDF]
Exotic magnetic structures, such as magnetic skyrmions and domain walls, are becoming more important in nitrogen-vacancy center scanning magnetometry. However, a systematic imaging approach to mapping stray fields with fluctuation of several milliteslas generated by such structures is not yet available.
