A general framework for brain network extraction from fMRI data with repeated measurements Abstract: We introduce a general framework for decomposing brain function into functional brain networks for multi-subject data with repeated measurements and covariate effects. This general method provides a much-needed tool for investigating brain networks and their differences in imaging studies with complex study designs including longitudinal and/or…
