Although individual subjects can be identified with high accuracy using correlation matrices computed from resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) data, the performance significantly degrades as the scan duration is decreased. Recurrent neural networks can achieve high accuracy with short-duration (72 s) data segments but are designed to use temporal features not present in the correlation matrices. Here we show that shallow feedforward neural networks that rely solely on the information in rsfMRI correlation matrices can achieve state-of-the-art identification accuracies (≥99.5%) with data segments as short as 20 s and across a range of input data size combinations when the total number of data points (number of regions × number of time points) is on the order of 10,000.

Here we show that shallow feedforward neural networks that rely solely on the information in rsfMRI correlation matrices can achieve state-of-the-art identification accuracies ( ≥ 99.5\%) with data segments as short as 20s and across a range of input data-size combinations when the total number of data points (# regions × # time points) is on the order of 10,000.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
