• Abstract: We present a dynamical-systems based model for resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), trained on a dataset of roughly 40K rs-fMRI sequences covering a wide variety of public and available-by-permission datasets. While most existing proposals use transformer backbones, we utilize multi-resolution temporal modeling of the dynamics across parcellated brain regions. We show that MnemoDyn is compute efficient and generalizes very well across diverse populations and scanning protocols. When benchmarked against current state-of-the-art transformer-based approaches, MnemoDyn consistently delivers superior reconstruction quality. Overall, we find that with such large-scale pre-training on (non-proprietary) rs-fMRI datasets, we get a highly performant model for various downstream tasks. Our results also provide evidence of the efficacy of the model on small sample size studies which has implications for neuroimaging studies at large where resting state fMRI is a commonly acquired imaging modality.

  Deep Learning (DL) models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in diagnosing multiple diseases using reconstructed images as input. DL models are sensitive to varying artifacts as it leads to changes in the input data distribution between the training and testing phases. We propose to use other normalization techniques, such as Group Normalization and Layer Normalization, to inject robustness into model performance against varying image artifacts.
