Multivariate Granger causality analysis of fMRI data.
This article describes the combination of multivariate Granger causality analysis, temporal down-sampling of fMRI time series, and graph theoretic concepts for investigating causal brain networks and their dynamics. As a demonstration, this approach was applied to analyze epoch-to-epoch changes in a hand-gripping, muscle fatigue experiment. Causal influences between the activated regions were a...
متن کاملMultivariate Granger Causality Analysis of Acupuncture Effects in Mild Cognitive Impairment Patients: An fMRI Study
Evidence from clinical reports has indicated that acupuncture has a promising effect on mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, it is still unknown that by what way acupuncture can modulate brain networks involving the MCI. In the current study, multivariate Granger causality analysis (mGCA) was adopted to compare the interregional effective connectivity of brain networks by varying needling ...
متن کاملSmall-world directed networks in the human brain: Multivariate Granger causality analysis of resting-state fMRI
Small-world organization is known to be a robust and consistent network architecture, and is a hallmark of the structurally and functionally connected human brain. However, it remains unknown if the same organization is present in directed influence brain networks whose connectivity is inferred by the transfer of information from one node to another. Here, we aimed to reveal the network archite...
متن کاملIs Granger Causality a Viable Technique for Analyzing fMRI Data?
Multivariate neural data provide the basis for assessing interactions in brain networks. Among myriad connectivity measures, Granger causality (GC) has proven to be statistically intuitive, easy to implement, and generate meaningful results. Although its application to functional MRI (fMRI) data is increasing, several factors have been identified that appear to hinder its neural interpretabilit...
متن کاملGranger-causality graphs for multivariate time series
In this paper, we discuss the properties of mixed graphs which visualize causal relationships between the components of multivariate time series. In these Granger-causality graphs, the vertices, representing the components of the time series, are connected by arrows according to the Granger-causality relations between the variables whereas lines correspond to contemporaneous conditional associa...
