Abstract

BACKGROUND: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent behavioral disorders in childhood and adolescence. Recently, network-based diagnosis of ADHD has attracted great attentions due to the fact that ADHD disease is related to not only individual brain regions but also the connections among them, while existing methods are hard to discover disorder patterns related with several brain regions.
