Hidden Markov Modeling Over Graphs

Ali H. Sayed, Mert Kayaalp, Stefan Vlaski, Virginia Bordignon

This work proposes a multi-agent filtering algorithm over graphs for finite-state hidden Markov models (HMMs), which can be used for sequential state estimation or for tracking opinion formation over dynamic social networks. We show that the difference fro ...

Characterization and prediction of clinical pathways of vulnerability to psychosis through graph signal processing

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maude Schneider, Daniela Maria Zöller, Anjali Bagunu Tarun

Causal interactions between specific psychiatric symptoms could contribute to the heterogenous clinical trajectories observed in early psychopathology. Current diagnostic approaches merge clinical manifestations that co-occur across subjects and could sign ...

The Role of Hub Neurons in Modulating Cortical Dynamics

Henry Markram, Oren Amsalem, Idan Segev, Eyal Gal, Michael London

Many neurodegenerative diseases are associated with the death of specific neuron types in particular brain regions. What makes the death of specific neuron types particularly harmful for the integrity and dynamics of the respective network is not well unde ...

The politics of participation in transdisciplinary sustainability research: an analysis of knowledge, values and power at the science-society interface

Livia Bianca Fritz

Problem. In the field of sustainability, scholars and policy-makers herald the transformative power of participation in transdisciplinary (TD) research. The increasing use of TD in science policy is rooted in the expectation that involving practitioners in ...

Scale-dependent measure of network centrality from diffusion dynamics

Alexis Arnaudon

Classic measures of graph centrality capture distinct aspects of node importance, from the local (e.g., degree) to the global (e.g., closeness). Here we exploit the connection between diffusion and geometry to introduce a multiscale centrality measure. A n ...

Anomaly detection in the dynamics of web and social networks

Pierre Vandergheynst, Kirell Maël Benzi, Volodymyr Miz, Benjamin Ricaud

In this work, we propose a new, fast and scalable method for anomaly detection in large time-evolving graphs. It may be a static graph with dynamic node attributes (e.g. time-series), or a graph evolving in time, such as a temporal network. We define an an ...

Topological exploration of artificial neuronal network dynamics

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Gard Spreemann

One of the paramount challenges in neuroscience is to understand the dynamics of individual neurons and how they give rise to network dynamics when interconnected. Historically, researchers have resorted to graph theory, statistics, and statistical mechani ...

How single neuron properties shape chaotic dynamics and signal transmission in random neural networks

Wulfram Gerstner, Tilo Schwalger, Samuel Pavio Muscinelli

While most models of randomly connected neural networks assume single-neuron models with simple dynamics, neurons in the brain exhibit complex intrinsic dynamics over multiple timescales. We analyze how the dynamical properties of single neurons and recurr ...

Slow dynamics in structured neural network models

Samuel Pavio Muscinelli

Humans and some other animals are able to perform tasks that require coordination of movements across multiple temporal scales, ranging from hundreds of milliseconds to several seconds. The fast timescale at which neurons naturally operate, on the order of ...
