Linear and nonlinear multidimensional functional connectivity methods reveal similar networks for semantic processing in EEG/MEG data by Setareh Rahimi, Rebecca L. Jackson, Rebecca L. Jackson, Olaf Hauk

“…However, with a sufficient number of trials- e.g., a trials-to-vertex ratio ≥10:1 - nTL-MDPC achieves up to 15% higher explained variance than the linear method. Nevertheless, application to a real EEG/MEG dataset demonstrated only subtle increases in nonlinear connectivity strength at longer time lags with no significant differences between the two approaches.DiscussionOverall, this suggests that linear multidimensional methods may be a reasonable practical choice to approximate brain connectivity, given the additional computational demands of nonlinear methods.…”
