APPLICATION OF FRACTIONAL ORDER DIFFUSION MODEL IN ANALYSIS OF DIFFUSION-WEIGHTED MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING DATA
This study explores the application of a fractional diffusion equation in diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI or DWI) analysis, aiming to validate and extend previous research based on an open-access dataset. A fractional-order model using the Mittag-Leffler function is implemented and validated by reproducing results presented in existing literature. The method is then applied to an open-access Connectome Diffusion Microstructure Dataset (CDMD) to analyze real brain imaging data.
