Went to the
beach…
• Most common
type of dementia
• 60% - 80% of
cases
• Progressive –
symptoms
gradually worsen

years The New York Times:

Standard,
but not that
much!
s for scalings
b for bias

Meta & RSNs

Mixed effects models
• Set out to study the relation between Metastability and Aβ and tau
at
• Whole Brain
• RSNs (Yeo’s 7 RSNs)
• Mixed what?
• Do it! ;-)
35
Computations (II)
• Phase dFC and Leading Eigenvectors
• Calculate phase synchrony: dFCn,p(t) = cos(𝜙n(t) - 𝜙p(t))
36
Computations (III)
• Clustering and probabilistic metastable substate (PMS)
37
Our (current) implementation
• Run clustering for k between 2 and 20
• Run for 100 different rnd seeds:
• because internally clustering uses rnd configurations
• Used Dunns clustering criterion…
39
Transitions…
40
Probs and lifetimes…
• Change criterion
• Many many options
• Silhouette?
• Maximize PMS discrimination?
• Other?

Better model? (secret project #6)
• Why?
• OK, it is the simplest model… but really, WHY?
