Robust dynamic community detection with applications to human brain functional networks.

ABSTRACT: While current technology permits inference of dynamic brain networks over long time periods at high temporal resolution, the detailed structure of dynamic network communities during human seizures remains poorly understood. We introduce a new methodology that addresses critical aspects unique to the analysis of dynamic functional networks inferred from noisy data. We propose a dynamic plex percolation method (DPPM) that is robust to edge noise, and yields well-defined spatiotemporal communities that span forward and backwards in time. We show in simulation that DPPM outperforms existing methods in accurately capturing certain stereotypical dynamic community behaviors in noisy situations. We then illustrate the ability of this method to track dynamic community organization during human seiz
