Dear All,
Hearty welcome to control group members. The control group seminar is
scheduled today at MSB 132 at 4 pm. The speaker is Gigi sebastian (Phd
student under Dr.Arun Tangirala). The title and the abstract is given
below . All the members are requested to attend.
Title: Quantitative analysis of directional strengths in multivariate proceses
Abstract:
Identification and analysis of directed influences in multivariate
systems is an important problem in many scientific areas. In recent
works on neural structure determination, two measures, namely, partial
directed coherence (PDC) and directed transfer function (DTF) that
provide direct and total coupling strengths between a pair of signals,
were introduced. These measures are based on joint stationary
representations of a multivariate process. The DTF is known to give a
normalized directed total influence of one variable on another, while
the PDC qualitatively detect direct influences.
In my talk, a quantification of transfer of
variations in one variable to another in a multivariate process based
on a of VAR / VMA (vector autoregressive / vector moving average)
model signal flow graph reduction of the multivariate process, will be
presented along with the description of the above mentioned methods.
Valuable insights into the structure of the process and the strengths
of the connectivities are obtainable by the proposed methods.
Regards,
S.Arun Srikanth.
