Altered Dynamic Functional Network Connectivity in Post‐Stroke Aphasia
ABSTRACT Objective Previous studies examining post‐stroke aphasia (PSA) patients via resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs‐fMRI) have predominantly focused on static functional connectivity. In contrast, the current investigation aims to elucidate the alterations in dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC) among PSA patients ...

MAKING PERSPECTIVE IMAGES USING GRAPHICS PROGRAMS.
This research paper meant to analyze several methods of creating perspective images in some useful graphics programs. Multi-perspective images are a useful way to visualize extended roughly planar scenes such as landscapes or city blocks. However, constructing effective multi-perspective images is something of an art.
