Abstract
Calcium is a ubiquitous messenger in neural signaling events. An increasing number of techniques are enabling visualization of neurological activity in animal models via luminescent proteins that bind to calcium ions. These techniques generate large volumes of spatially correlated time series. A model-based functional data analysis methodology via Gaussian mixtures is suggested for the clustering of data from such visualizations is proposed. The methodology is theoretically justified and a computationally efficient approach to estimation is suggested. An example analysis of a zebrafish imaging experiment is presented.
期刊介绍:
Statistical Analysis and Data Mining addresses the broad area of data analysis, including statistical approaches, machine learning, data mining, and applications. Topics include statistical and computational approaches for analyzing massive and complex datasets, novel statistical and/or machine learning methods and theory, and state-of-the-art applications with high impact. Of special interest are articles that describe innovative analytical techniques, and discuss their application to real problems, in such a way that they are accessible and beneficial to domain experts across science, engineering, and commerce.
The focus of the journal is on papers which satisfy one or more of the following criteria:
Solve data analysis problems associated with massive, complex datasets
Develop innovative statistical approaches, machine learning algorithms, or methods integrating ideas across disciplines, e.g., statistics, computer science, electrical engineering, operation research.
Formulate and solve high-impact real-world problems which challenge existing paradigms via new statistical and/or computational models
Provide survey to prominent research topics.
