Abstract
AbstractThis study assesses the reliability of resting-state dynamic causal modelling (DCM) of magneto-electroencephalography under conductance-based canonical microcircuit models, in terms of both posterior parameter estimates and model evidence. We use resting state magneto-electroencephalography (MEG) data from two sessions, acquired two weeks apart, from a cohort with high between-subject variance arising from Alzheimer’s disease. Our focus is not on the effect of disease, but on the predictive validity of the methods implicit in their reliability, which is crucial for future studies of disease progression and drug intervention. To assess the predictive validity of first-level DCMs, we compare model evidence associated with the covariance among subject-specific free energies (i.e., the ‘quality’ of the models) with vs. without interclass correlations. We then used parametric empirical Bayes (PEB) to investigate the predictive validity of DCM parameters at the between subject level. Specifically, we examined the evidence for or against parameter differences (i) within-subject, within-session, between-epochs; (ii) within-subject between-session and (iii) within-site between-subjects, accommodating the conditional dependency among parameter estimates. We show that for data acquired close in time, and under similar circumstances, more than 95% of inferred DCM parameters are unlikely to differ, speaking to mutual predictability over sessions. Using PEB, we show a reciprocal relationship between a conventional definition of ‘reliability’ and the conditional dependency among inferred model parameters. Our analyses confirm the predictive validity and reliability of the conductance-based DCMs for resting-state neurophysiological data. In this respect, the implicit generative modelling is suitable for interventional and longitudinal studies of neurological and psychiatric disorders.Abstract Figure
