Researchers have developed a new dictionary learning method for fMRI data that accounts for individual brain geometry variations. This approach utilizes the optimal transport-based Fused Gromov-Wasserstein (FGW) distance to compare graphs with differing structures and features. To manage computational costs, they employ amortized optimization with a neural network to approximate optimal transport plans, enabling the learning of dictionary atoms that balance feature alignment and structural consistency. Experiments on the HCP dataset show this method effectively captures geometric variability and retains crucial information. AI
