This work involved the design of a multi-view manifold learning algorithm that capitalizes on various types of structure in high-dimensional time-series data to model dynamic signals in low dimensions. The resulting embeddings of human functional brain imaging data unveil trajectories through brain states that predict cognitive processing during diverse experimental tasks.
