Brain structure is tightly coupled with brain functions, but it remains unclear how cognition is related to brain morphology, and what is consistent across neurodevelopment. In this work, we developed graph convolutional neural networks (gCNNs) to predict Fluid Intelligence (Gf) from shapes of cortical ribbons and subcortical structures. T1-weighted MRIs from two independent cohorts, the Human Connectome Project (HCP; age: 28.81{+/-}3.70) and the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study (ABCD; age: 9.93{+/-}0.62) were independently analyzed. Cortical and subcortical surfaces were extracted and modeled as surface meshes. Three gCNNs were trained and evaluated using six-fold nested cross-validation. Overall, combining cortical and subcortical surfaces yielded the best predictions on both HCP (R=0.454) and ABCD datasets (R=0.314), and outperformed the current literature. Across both datasets, the morphometry of the amygdala and hippocampus, along with temporal, parietal and cingulate cortex consistently drove the prediction of Gf, suggesting a novel reframing of the morphometry underlying Gf.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
