Fig 3. Minimum path length and the clustering coefficient.

Fig 3

We estimate the average of the minimum path length and the clustering coefficient for threshold values rc. The topological network structure is obtained by the condition aij = 1 if |wij| > rc for each matrix data. Then the average is taken for whole datasets, 986 functional connectome datasets [9, 15]. A The Average of the minimum path length. For Lij the minimum path length between i and j nodes, we estimate the average <L>=1N(N-1)ijLij with all pairs of nodes in each graph. For unconnected node pairs, which have no connected path, Lij are substituted by the total number of nodes. B The clustering coefficient. The clustering coefficient measures the probability that the adjacent vertices of a vertex are connected. C Changes of the clustering coefficient. We show the changes of the clustering coefficient along the threshold with ΔC = C(i) − C(i + 1), where i indicates the value at rc = 0.1 × i threshold.
