Mapping Human Whole-Brain Structural Networks with Diffusion MRI

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Patrick Thiran, Reto Meuli, Patric Hagmann, Xavier Gigandet, Maciej Kurant, Van Jay Wedeen

Understanding the large-scale structural network formed by neurons is a major challenge in system neuroscience. A detailed connectivity map covering the entire brain would therefore be of great value. Based on diffusion MRI, we propose an efficient methodo ...

Simplifying complex networks

David Gfeller

The framework of complex networks has been shown to describe adequately a wide class of complex systems made up of a large number of interacting units. In this framework, a node is associated to each unit and two nodes are connected by an edge if the two u ...

Existence, cost and robustness of spatial small-world networks

Paolo De Los Rios, Thomas Petermann

Small-world networks embedded in Euclidean space represent useful cartoon models for a number of real systems such as electronic circuits, communication systems, the large-scale brain architecture and others. Since the small-world behavior relies on the pr ...

Enhancing synchronizability of dynamical networks using the connection graph stability method

Martin Hasler, Ali Ajdari Rad, Mahdi Jalili

Dynamical networks with diffusive couplings are investigated from the point of view of synchronizability. Arbitrary connection graphs are admitted but the coupling is symmetric. Networks with equal interaction coefficients for all edges of the interaction ...

Representing perturbed dynamics in biological network models

Felix Naef, Jacques Rougemont

We study the dynamics of gene activities in relatively small size biological networks (up to a few tens of nodes), e.g., the activities of cell-cycle proteins during the mitotic cell-cycle progression. Using the framework of deterministic discrete dynamica ...

Patterns of dominant flows in the world trade web

The large-scale organization of the world economies is exhibiting increasingly levels of local heterogeneity and global interdependency. Understanding the relation between local and global features calls for analytical tools able to uncover the global emer ...

Spectral coarse graining of complex networks

Paolo De Los Rios, David Gfeller

Reducing the complexity of large systems described as complex networks is key to understanding them and a crucial issue is to know which properties of the initial system are preserved in the reduced one. Here we use random walks to design a coarse graining ...
