On Shapley Ratings in Brain Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the problem of computing the influence of a neuronal structure in a brain network. Abraham et al. (2006) computed this influence by using the Shapley value of a coalitional game corresponding to a directed network as a rating. Kötter et al. (2007) applied this rating to large-scale brain networks, in particular to the macaque visual cortex and the macaque prefrontal cortex. Our aim is to improve upon the above technique by measuring the importance of subgroups of neuronal structures in a different way. This new modeling technique not only leads to a more intuitive coalitional game, but also allows for specifying the relative influence of neuronal structures and a direct extension to a setting with missing information on the existence of certain connections.

Shapley Ratings in Brain Networks
Recent applications of network theory to brain networks as well as the expanding empirical databases of brain architecture spawn an interest in novel techniques for analyzing connectivity patterns in the brain. Treating individual brain structures as nodes in a directed graph model permits the application of graph theoretical concepts to the analysis of these structures within their large-scale...
متن کاملfinding influential individual in Social Network graphs using CSCS algorithm and shapley value in game theory
In recent years, the social networks analysis gains great deal of attention. Social networks have various applications in different areas namely predicting disease epidemic, search engines and viral advertisements. A key property of social networks is that interpersonal relationships can influence the decisions that they make. Finding the most influential nodes is important in social networks b...
متن کاملPrediction of user's trustworthiness in web-based social networks via text mining
In Social networks, users need a proper estimation of trust in others to be able to initialize reliable relationships. Some trust evaluation mechanisms have been offered, which use direct ratings to calculate or propagate trust values. However, in some web-based social networks where users only have binary relationships, there is no direct rating available. Therefore, a new method is required t...
متن کاملA Connectivity Rating for Vertices in Networks
We compute the influence of a vertex on the connectivity structure of a directed network by using Shapley value theory. In general, the computation of such ratings is highly inefficient. We show how the computation can be managed for many practically interesting instances by a decomposition of large networks into smaller parts. For undirected networks, we introduce an algorithm that computes al...
متن کاملAlternative Axiomatic Characterizations of the Grey Shapley Value
The Shapley value, one of the most common solution concepts of cooperative game theory is defined and axiomatically characterized in different game-theoretic models. Certainly, the Shapley value can be used in interesting sharing cost/reward problems in the Operations Research area such as connection, routing, scheduling, production and inventory situations. In this paper, we focus on the Shapl...
