Abstract
Understanding white matter (WM) functional connectivity is crucial for unraveling brain function and dysfunction. In this study, we present a novel WM intrinsic connectivity network (ICN) template derived from over 100,000 fMRI scans, identifying 97 robust WM ICNs using spatially constrained independent component analysis (scICA). This WM template, combined with a previously identified gray matter (GM) ICN template from the same dataset, was applied to analyze a resting-state fMRI (rs-fMRI) dataset from the Bipolar-Schizophrenia Network on Intermediate Phenotypes 2 (BSNIP2; 590 subjects) and a task-based fMRI dataset from the MIND Clinical Imaging Consortium (MCIC; 75 subjects). Our analysis highlights distinct spatial maps for WM and GM ICNs, with WM ICNs showing higher frequency profiles. Visually modular structure within WM ICNs and interactions between WM and GM modules were identified. Task-based fMRI revealed event-related BOLD signals in WM ICNs, particularly within the corticospinal tract, lateralized to finger movement. Notable differences in static functional network connectivity (sFNC) matrices were observed between controls (HC) and schizophrenia (SZ) subjects in both WM and GM networks. This open-source WM NeuroMark template and automated pipeline offer a powerful tool for advancing WM connectivity research across diverse datasets.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
