Topic: Clustering analysis

Expert drivers have highly consistent eye blink patterns on the track while driving during car sports. However, it is not well-understood how these patterns develop and what distinguishes them within and between individuals. We aimed to explore the impact of driving skills, relative performance, and individual factors on eyeblink frequency and spatial eyeblink timing, and further sought to determine how these factors influenced these measures. Previous research has utilized actual formula cars, but this study employed a sports driving simulator to recruit non-expert participants. The participa

Childhood stroke is a severe but rare disorder with increasing incidence. Early research assumed an improved outcome due to better neuronal plasticity in childhood stroke patients as compared to adults. However, more recent studies indicate similar rates of disabilities and cognitive impairment. Here, we used resting-state fMRI to study transient brain states and their association with cognitive outcome in children and adolescents after childhood stroke. We used clustering analysis to characterize eight recurring spatial co-activation patterns (CAPs) in a cohort of 19 patients and 17 age-match
