Geometry-Guided Generative Representation for Functional Brain Graphs

arXiv:2511. 04539v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In network neuroscience, functional brain systems are often characterized using separate yet related graph-theoretic or spectral descriptors, overlooking how these properties covary and partially overlap across individuals and conditions.

Graph-Based Approaches to Learning Epileptogenic Zone Localization Using Stereo-EEG Recordings

The study evaluates how different graph topologies influence the localization of the epileptogenic zone (EZ) from resting‑state stereo‑EEG recordings in 40 patients. Using a consistent learning model and leave‑one‑patient‑out validation, the authors compare dense graphs, anatomy‑ and geometry‑informed priors, budgeted sparsification, learned sparsification, and a new Region‑Bridge‑c topology. At about 30% edge retention, Region‑Bridge‑c achieves the highest mean PR‑AUC and ROC‑AUC while using roughly 69% fewer edges than a dense graph, indicating that graph construction significantly impacts EZ localization performance.

Stable Filters for Generative Modeling of Graph Signals

The paper studies the stability of graph-aware continuous‑time generative models that use a graph filter combined with a learned graph neural network. It derives explicit Wasserstein bounds showing how relative graph perturbations affect the generated distributions, and proposes a principled framework for designing stable graph filters that preserve heat‑diffusion smoothing while improving structural stability. Experiments on synthetic and fMRI data demonstrate that these stable filters enhance robustness and match or surpass the generative quality of a heat‑equation baseline.
