Abstract

The conventional multivariate Granger Analysis (GA) of directed interactions has been widely applied in brain network construction based on EEG recordings as well as fMRI. Nevertheless, EEG is usually inevitably contaminated by strong noise, which may cause network distortion due to the L2-norm used in GAs for directed network recovery. The Lp (p ≤1) norm has been shown to be more robust to outliers as compared to LASSO and L2-GAs. Motivated to construct the sparse brain networks under strong noise condition, we hereby introduce a new approach for GA analysis, termed LAPPS (Least Absolute LP (0
