Joint Analysis of Functional and Structural Connectomes Between Preterm and Term Infant Brains via Canonical Correlation Analysis With Locality Preserving Projection

Preterm is a worldwide problem that affects infants' lives significantly. Moreover, the early impairment is more than limited to isolated brain regions but also to global and profound negative outcomes later, such as cognitive disorder. Therefore, seeking the differences of brain connectome between preterm and term infant brains is a vital step for understanding the developmental impairment caused by preterm. Existing studies revealed that...
