What is Graph Signal Processing ?
GSP in four steps
Define a graph with N nodes,
Compute Graph Laplacian L (e.g. L = D − A) and find its
eigenvectors U
Define a signal x with N values, one per node.
Graph Fourier transform is defined by ˆx = U x

Spectral Graph Wavelet Transform (SGWT)
Wavelet atoms are obtained by:
ψs,a = ΣN
n=1g(sλn )ˆδ(n)un (1)
where g(.) is the kernel function, s is the scale, ˆδ is the graph Fourier
transform of dirac delta and un are the columns of U.
SGWT of f is obtained using the inner product Wf (s, a) =< ψs,a , f >.

Conclusions and perspectives
The promising part:
Connectome harmonics are relevant,
Certain graph frequency may be useful to generate new
hypothesis,
GSP may help levarage explanatory power in small datasets.
The difficult part...
Brain signals (oscillations) are highly non-linear and
non-stationnary,
Dynamic graphs are needed to integrate both the complex spatial
dynamics and non-stationary aspects,
Unique opportunity of collaborative research between Neuroscience
and AI!

Prediction and Inference
"Inference typically focuses on isolating variables deemed
individually important above some chance level, often based on p
values."
"Prediction commonly aims at identifying variable sets that
together enable accurate guessing of outcomes based on other or
future data."
