Recursive dynamic functional connectivity reveals a characteristic correlation structure in human scalp EEG

Abstract Time-varying neurophysiological activity has been classically explored using correlation based sliding window analysis. However, this method employs only lower order statistics to track dynamic functional connectivity of the brain. We introduce recursive dynamic functional connectivity (rdF...
