Comparison of dimensionality reduction and feature selection for cognitive task decoding in functional magnetic resonance imaging Background Advances in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have led to the ability to study the brain across many contexts. However, the large number of features generated by functional conne...

Pleased to share another preprint! In this paper, we compare a suite of dimensionality reduction and feature selection methods for fMRI task decoding.

Brain Age Prediction in Generalized Anxiety Disorder using a Convolutional Neural Network Higher predicted brain age difference has been associated with several psychiatric disorders. Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is associated with markers of accelerated aging. In this study, we dete...

Happy to (finally!) be able to share a preprint of the first of papers from my dissertation! In this work we examined brain age prediction in individuals with and without GAD with structural MRI.
