SCPs consist of those regions whose between-region connectivity co-varies across subjects. This algorithm was developed as a complementary approach to existing network identification methods. SCPLearn has the following advantages: Does not require thresholding of correlation matrices Allows for both positive and negative correlations Does not constrain the SCPs to have spatial/temporal orthogonality/independence Provides group-common SCPs and subject-specific measures of average correlation within each SCP Can be run within a hierarchical framework to get "primary" (large spatial extent) and "secondary" level (small spatial extent) SCPs Subject-level coefficients can be used for subsequent group-level analysis. 2018-7-30 1.0.0 CBICA: Identification of Sparse Connectivity Patterns in rsfMRI (SCPLearn) Clinical Neuroinformatics, MR, Computational Neuroscience, SBIA License http://www.nitrc.org/projects/cbica_scplearn/ Alexander.Getka@pennmedicine.upenn.edu
