Abstract

Since the construction of functional brain network is limited by the accuracy and coverage of the description of regions of interest in a specific brain atlas, this paper proposed a method of functional brain network construction based on cognitive task information and neuroimaging data. The proposed method first calculated the sensitivity of fMRI voxels to cognitive tasks, and then selected the brain regions of interest that balance both distribution and decentralization on this basis, thereby constructing a task-driven functional brain network. The experiment constructed a task-driven functional brain network in the fusiform gyrus related to facial emotion recognition cognitive tasks. Its four complex network indicators of degree centrality, clustering coefficient, global efficiency, and local efficiency are superior to the ones of the network constructed by typical brain atlas. The results show that the brain regions of interest calculated by this method are more integrated and more suitable for characterizing functional brain networks under specific cognitive tasks.
