It has been shown to be a useful characterization of fMRI data in health and disease. It fits an Ising model to the data and captures the dynamics of the data as movement of a noisy ball constrained on the energy landscape derived from the estimated Ising model. In the present study, we examine test-retest reliability of the energy landscape analysis. To this end, we construct a permutation test that assesses whether or not indices characterizing the energy landscape are more consistent across different sets of scanning sessions from the same participant (i.e., within-participant reliability) than across different sets of sessions from different participants (i.e., between-participant reliability). We show that the energy landscape analysis has significantly higher within-participant than between-participant test-retest reliability with respect to four commonly used indices. We also show that a variational Bayesian method, which enables us to estimate energy landscapes tailored to each participant, displays comparable test-retest reliability to that using the conventional likelihood maximization method. The proposed methodology paves the way to perform individual-level energy landscape analysis for given data sets with a statistically controlled reliability.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.19573v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.19573v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"reliability-of-energy-landscape-analysis-of","repo_url":"https://github.com/pitambarkhanra/energy_landscape_analysis","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"time-series-1","task_name":"Time Series"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"test","method_name":"Test"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
