Effective Connectivity Extracted from Resting-State fMRI Images Using Transfer Entropy

Based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), macroscopic structural and functional connectivity of human brain has been widely explored in the last decade. However, little work has been done on effective connectivity between individual brain parcels. In this preliminary study, we aim to investigate whole-brain effective connectivity networks from resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) images. After the functional connectivity networks of 26...
