Fiber-Centered Granger Causality Analysis [PDF]
, 2011 Granger causality analysis (GCA) has been well-established in the brain imaging field. However, the structural underpinnings and functional dynamics of Granger causality remain unclear. In this paper, we present fiber-centered GCA studies on resting state fMRI and natural stimulus fMRI datasets in order to elucidate the structural substrates and ...

Decomposing Granger causality over the spectrum. [PDF]
We develop a bivariate spectral Granger-causality test that can be applied at each individual frequency of the spectrum. The spectral approach to Granger causality has the distinct advantage that it allows to disentangle (potentially) different Granger ...

Information Network Modeling for U.S. Banking Systemic Risk
Entropy, 2020 In this work we investigate whether information theory measures like mutual information and transfer entropy, extracted from a bank network, Granger cause financial stress indexes like LIBOR-OIS (London Interbank Offered Rate-Overnight Index Swap) spread,

Testing for Granger Non-causality in Heterogeneous Panels [PDF]
This paper proposes a very simple test of Granger (1969) non-causality for hetero- geneous panel data models. Our test statistic is based on the individual Wald statistics of Granger non causality averaged across the cross-section units.

Topological Properties of International Commodity Market: How Uncertainty Affects the Linkages?
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The study aims to explore the network topology of the international commodity market by examining the interconnections among 21 commodity futures across various categories, including energy, precious and industrial metals, and agriculture. We analyze the market structure of these commodity futures under both low and high uncertainty conditions
