• Abstract: Most approaches to the estimation of brain functional connectivity from the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data rely on computing some measure of statistical dependence, or more generally, a distance between univariate representative time series of regions of interest (ROIs) consisting of multiple voxels. However, summarizing a ROI's multiple time series with its mean or the first principal component (1PC) may result to the loss of information as, for example, 1PC explains only a small fraction of variance of the multivariate signal of the neuronal activity. We propose to compare ROIs directly, without the use of representative time series, defining a new measure of multivariate connectivity between ROIs, not necessarily consisting of the same number of voxels, based on the Wasserstein distance. We assess the proposed Wasserstein functional connectivity measure on the autism screening task, demonstrating its superiority over commonly used univariate and multivariate functional connectivity measures.

  Machine learning applications on signals such as computer vision or biomedical data often face challenges due to the variability that exists across hardware devices or session recordings. In this work, we propose Spatio-Temporal Monge Alignment (STMA) to mitigate these variabilities. We show that STMA leads to significant and consistent performance gains between datasets acquired with very different settings.

  We present a novel method for joint alignment of multivariate quasi-periodic functions using deep neural networks. Our proposed neural network uses a special activation of the output that builds on the unit simplex transformation. We demonstrate our method on two simulated datasets and one real example, comprising data from 12-lead 10s electrocardiogram recordings.

  Resting-state MRI functional (rs-fMRI) is increasingly employed in multi-site research to aid neurological disorder analysis. Many methods have been proposed to reduce fMRI heterogeneity between source and target domains. But acquiring source data is challenging due to concerns and/or data storage burdens in multi-site studies. We design a source-free collaborative domain adaptation framework for fMRI analysis, where only a pretrained source model and unlabeled target data are accessible.

• Causality-Based Multivariate Time Series Anomaly Detection [63.799474860969156]
  We formulate the anomaly detection problem from a causal perspective and view anomalies as instances that do not follow the regular causal mechanism to generate the multivariate data. We then propose a causality-based anomaly detection approach, which first learns the causal structure from data and then infers whether an instance is an anomaly relative to the local causal mechanism. We evaluate our approach with both simulated and public datasets as well as a case study on real-world AIOps applications.

  We propose a neural network called MRMD-AEmani that learns a common embedding from multiple subjects in an experiment. We show that our learned common space represents antemporal manifold (where new points not seen during training can be mapped), improves the classification of stimulus features of unseen timepoints. We believe this framework can be used for many downstream applications such as guided brain-computer interface (BCI) training in the future.

  Multi-agent imitation learning aims to train multiple agents to perform tasks from demonstrations by learning a mapping between observations and actions. In this paper, we propose to use copula, a powerful statistical tool for capturing dependence among random variables, to explicitly model the correlation and coordination in multi-agent systems. Our proposed model is able to separately learn marginals that capture the local behavioral patterns of each individual agent, as well as a copula function that solely and fully captures the dependence structure among agents.
