Abstract:Scientific discovery in connectomics relies on the use of network null models. To systematically evaluate the prominence of brain network features, empirical measures are compared against null statistics computed in randomized networks. Modern imaging and tracing technologies provide an increasingly rich repertoire of biologically meaningful edge weights. Despite the prevalence of weighted graph analysis in connectomics, randomization models that only preserve binary node degree remain most widely used. Here, … Show more
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.
