# Multimodal Brain Connectivity Analysis with Interpretable GNN

## 核心方法论

整合三种神经影像模态的可解释图神经网络框架：

### 1. 多模态数据整合
- **fMRI（功能磁共振）**：功能连接矩阵（FC）
- **DTI（扩散张量成像）**：结构连接矩阵（SC）
- **sMRI（结构磁共振）**：解剖特征（皮层厚度、表面积等）

### 2. 基于Atlas的配准
- **Glasser Atlas**：360个皮层区域
- 一致的区域划分确保跨模态对齐
- 区域级特征提取

### 3. 掩码策略
- **连接级掩码**：差异加权神经连接
- **可解释性**：揭示关键连接和特征
- **多尺度融合**：整合全局和局部特征

## 实现代码示例
