Abstract

The number of common neighbor between nodes is applied to the modeling of resting-state brain function network in order to analyze the effect of anatomical distance on the modeling of resting-state brain function network. Three models based on anatomical distance, the number of common neighbor, or anatomical distance and the number of common neighbor are designed. Basing on residuals creates the evaluation criteria for selecting the optimal brain function model network in each class model. The model is selected to simulate the human real brain function network by comparison with real data functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) network. Finally, the result shows that the best model only is based on anatomical distance.
