Background: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides non-invasive measures of neuronal activity using an endogenous Blood Oxygenation-Level Dependent (BOLD) contrast. This article introduces a nonlinear dimensionality reduction (Locally Linear Embedding) to extract informative measures of the underlying neuronal activity from BOLD time-series. The method is validated usin... https://www.petsmagneters.shop/product-category/bird/
