Abstract

Consider a problem of building a vector autoregressive model based on a data set of a limited size which is often the case when analyzing fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) data. We propose a method of structure learning by using the structural information which lies in marginal models. A simulation experiment using a 10-dimensional vector-autoregressive model of order 3 strongly supports the usefulness of the proposed marginal model approach.
