Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Computational Neuroscience
  • Systems Neuroscience

Background:

  • Characterizing brain organization, especially in resting-state fMRI, requires robust effective connectivity computation.
  • Direct causal inference from BOLD signals is limited; transformation to neural events is necessary for accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a novel approach for effective connectivity estimation using deconvolution-based features and inter-regional communication lag.
  • To assess the method's performance under varying simulation and realistic recording conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Developed an effective connectivity estimation method utilizing deconvolution-derived features and communication lag.
  • Tested the approach using simulated data and whole-brain fMRI BOLD signals.
  • Evaluated the impact of deconvolution precision and network size on estimation performance.

Main Results:

  • Effective connectivity estimation was successful in networks up to 400 regions-of-interest (ROIs) under idealized simulations.
  • Under realistic conditions, the method reliably estimated effective connectivity in networks up to approximately 60 ROIs.
  • Validated the method's ability to detect effective connectivity in whole-brain fMRI data.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed method offers a viable approach for effective connectivity estimation from fMRI data.
  • Deconvolution precision and network size are critical factors influencing estimation accuracy.
  • The method shows promise for characterizing brain network organization in resting-state fMRI studies.
