Automatic parcellation of resting-state cortical dynamics by iterative community detection and similarity measurements <i>Running title: Functional parcellation of the cerebral cortex</i>

To investigate the properties of a large-scale brain network, it is a common practice to reduce the dimension of resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) data to tens to hundreds of nodes. This study presents an analytic streamline that incorporates modular analysis and similari...
