Predicting nonverbal intelligence level from resting-state connectivity: a neural networks approach

Abstract

This article is devoted to the development of a model of an artificial neural network for predicting the level of nonverbal intelligence according to the EEG of the brain. Cognitive functioning relies on the synchronization between different brain structures. However, it is still unclear how individual differences in intelligence are related to the global characteristics of information transmission in brain networks. Resting-state functional connectivity studies show the association of patterns of interactions between brain regions from people and different levels of nonverbal intelligence. In this study, we present a process of development of a neural network model used to predict the level of nonverbal intelligence based on EEG data of the brain. We have developed a fully-connected neural network to predict the level of nonverbal intelligence.
