The frequency-specific coupling mechanism of the functional human brain networks underpins its complex cognitive and behavioral functions. Nevertheless, it is not well unveiled what are the frequency-specific subdivisions and network topologies of the human brain. In this study, we estimated functional connectivity of the human cerebral cortex using spectral connection, and conducted frequency-specific parcellation using eigen-clustering and gradient-based methods, and then explored their topological structures. 7T fMRI data of 184 subjects in the HCP dataset were used for parcellation and exploring the topological properties of the functional networks, and 3T fMRI data of another 890 subjects were used to confirm the stability of the frequency-specific topologies. Seven to ten functional networks were stably integrated by two to four dissociable hub categories at specific frequencies, and we proposed an intrinsic functional atlas containing 456 parcels according to the parcellations across frequencies. The results revealed that the functional networks contained stable frequency-specific topologies, which may imply more abundant roles of the functional units and more complex interactions among them.
Self-organized critical states are found in many natural systems, from earthquakes to forest fires, they have also been observed in neural systems, particularly, in neuronal cultures. However, the presence of critical states in the awake brain remain
Sleep slow waves are known to participate in memory consolidation, yet slow waves occurring under anesthesia present no positive effects on memory. Here, we shed light onto this paradox, based on a combination of extracellular recordings in vivo, in
In this paper the method and performance data of Boundary Element Method (BEM)-based SMS-LORETA (Simultaneous Multiple Sources LORETA) are presented. According to these data the method is capable of locating efficiently multiple simultaneously active
The human thalamus is a brain structure that comprises numerous, highly specific nuclei. Since these nuclei are known to have different functions and to be connected to different areas of the cerebral cortex, it is of great interest for the neuroimag
The connectome, or the entire connectivity of a neural system represented by network, ranges various scales from synaptic connections between individual neurons to fibre tract connections between brain regions. Although the modularity they commonly s
