Background:

Understanding brain connectivity is crucial for neuroscience research.
Existing methods face challenges in modeling within- and between-condition connectivity variations.
Accurate inference of effective connectivity across trials and conditions is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a novel Bayesian hierarchical vector autoregressive (BH-VAR) model for characterizing brain connectivity.
To infer differences in connectivity across experimental conditions and trials.
To incorporate within-condition similarity and between-conditions heterogeneity in connectivity modeling.

Main Methods:

Developed a Bayesian hierarchical vector autoregressive (BH-VAR) model.
Utilized partial directed coherence (PDC) for frequency-specific effective connectivity inference.
Applied a two-stage computation approach for efficient parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification.
Analyzed local field potentials (LFPs) from rat hippocampus during a memory task.

Main Results:

The BH-VAR model successfully characterized hippocampal connectivity during a memory task.
Identified two distinct functional units within the CA1 region: lateral and medial segments.
Observed stronger self-connectivity within each functional unit.
Revealed a primary lateral-to-medial information flow direction within trials.
Demonstrated condition-specific differences in this lateral-to-medial information flow.

Conclusions:

The proposed BH-VAR model effectively quantifies variations in functional connectivity within and between conditions.
The model provides novel insights into hippocampal network dynamics during memory encoding and retrieval.
This approach offers broad applicability for analyzing complex brain connectivity data in neuroscience research.
