The human brain, characterized by its intricate architecture, exhibits complex mechanical properties that underpin its critical functional capabilities. Traditional computational methods, such as finite element analysis, have been instrumental in unc...
Cortical parcellation delineates the cerebral cortex into distinct regions according to their distinctiveness in anatomy and/or function, which is a fundamental preprocess in brain cortex analysis and can influence the accuracy and specificity of sub...
The identification of cortical sulci is key for understanding functional and structural development of the cortex. While large, consistent sulci (or primary/secondary sulci) receive significant attention in most studies, the exploration of smaller an...
Current artificial systems suffer from catastrophic forgetting during continual learning, a limitation absent in biological systems. Biological mechanisms leverage the dual representation of specific and generalized memories within corticohippocampal...
Macroscale neuroimaging results have revealed significant differences in the structural and functional connectivity patterns of gyri and sulci in the primate cerebral cortex. Despite these findings, understanding these differences at the molecular le...
Sulci are a fundamental part of brain morphology, closely linked to brain function, cognition, and behavior. Tertiary sulci, characterized as the shallowest and smallest subtype, pose a challenging task for detection. The diagonal sulcus (ds), locate...
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) measures cortical hemodynamic changes, yet it cannot collect this information from subcortical structures, such as the thalamus, which is involved in several key functional networks. To address this drawb...
The Developing Human Connectome Project (dHCP) aims to explore developmental patterns of the human brain during the perinatal period. An automated processing pipeline has been developed to extract high-quality cortical surfaces from structural brain ...

The cortical surface parcellation provides prior guidance for studying mental disorders and human cognition. Graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained popularity in this task to preserve its spatial structure. However, previous GNNs struggled to effec...
INTRODUCTION: Schizophrenia is a complex mental disorder whose pathophysiology remains elusive, particularly in the roles of subcortex. This study aims to explore the role of subcortex and insula and their relationship with symptom changes in first-e...
