Correlations02:20

Correlations

35.8K
Correlation means that there is a relationship between two or more variables (such as ice cream consumption and crime), but this relationship does not necessarily imply cause and effect. When two variables are correlated, it simply means that as one variable changes, so does the other. We can measure correlation by calculating a statistic known as a correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient is a number from -1 to +1 that indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between...

Correlation and Causation01:27

Correlation and Causation

42.4K
Statistical tests can calculate whether there is a relationship, or correlation, between independent and dependent variables. An indirect relationship of the variables signifies a correlation, while a direct relationship shows causation. If it is determined that no connection exists between the variables, then the correlation is a coincidence.
Correlation versus Causation
If the dependent variable increases or decreases when the independent variable increases, there is a positive or negative...

Seed Structure and Early Development of the Sporophyte02:33

Seed Structure and Early Development of the Sporophyte

31.0K
Seed structures are composed of a protective seed coat surrounding a plant embryo, and a food store for the developing embryo. The embryo contains the precursor tissues for leaves, stem, and roots. The endosperm and cotyledons—seed leaves—act as the food reserves for the growing embryo.

Correlation

14.8K
In statistics, two variables are said to be correlated if the values of one variable are associated with the other variable. Depending on the relationship between two variables, correlation can be of three types– positive correlation, negative correlation, and zero correlation.
Two variables, for example, a and b, are said to be positively correlated if both variables move in the same direction. In other words, a positive correlation exists between two variables, a and b, if:

Introduction to Seed Plants

Correlation and Regression00:53

Correlation and Regression

3.2K
In statistics, correlation describes the degree of association between two variables. In the subfield of linear regression, correlation is mathematically expressed by the correlation coefficient, which describes the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables. The coefficient is symbolically represented by 'r' and ranges from -1 to +1. A positive value indicates a positive correlation where the two variables move in the same direction. A negative value suggests a...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Brain Network Analysis
  • Functional Connectivity

Background:

  • Seed-based correlation (SCA) analysis is a common method for assessing brain functional connectivity (FC).
  • Traditional SCA is sensitive to minor variations in seed location, leading to dramatic changes in FC results.
  • A more robust method is needed to overcome the limitations of SCA.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel probabilistic method (SC-SCA) for functional connectivity analysis that is robust to seed location variations.
  • To provide a probabilistic interpretation of functional connectivity.
  • To demonstrate the advantages of SC-SCA over traditional SCA.

Main Methods:

  • A probabilistic method generating a cloud of highly connected voxels (SC-SCA) was developed.
  • The method was applied to the default mode network (DMN) and auditory network (AN).
  • Bayesian interpretation using maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation and stability analyses were performed.

Main Results:

  • SC-SCA successfully identified known brain networks like the DMN and AN.
  • The method demonstrated robustness to seed location variations (±10 mm).
  • SC-SCA provided enhanced detail and consistency in correlation maps compared to traditional SCA, with seed-based SC-SCA outperforming sphere-based SCA.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed SC-SCA method offers robust FC estimation, Bayesian capabilities, and enhanced detail.
  • SC-SCA is more robust to seed location and provides more consistent correlation maps than traditional SCA.
  • Region-based SC-SCA is equivalent or superior to other methods, while seed-based SCA is inferior.
