Correlation between structural and functional network metrics. Temporal evolution of the correlation coefficient between structural and functional networks (A), as well between node-wise structural and functional clustering (B) and closeness (C), with illustrative scatter plots (insets) at specified time instants. Functional network metrics are derived by analyzing fast time scale functional networks and averaging the resulting metrics (see main text for details). An alternative approach, which averages the correlations of fast time scale networks, results in significantly weaker correlations (solid lines). (C) Correlation between structural and functional clustering at a single structural state, plotted against the number of sampled instantaneous functional networks. A strong correlation emerges as more networks are sampled. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean, as estimated over 20 simulations.
