Focal epilepsy is characterized by a not yet fully understood abnormal brain network organization that can be addressed with the integration of EEG, revealing the epileptic activity, and dynamic functional connectivity, exploring the connections dynamics during resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. We proposed a new method to combine the two techniques using partial least squares regression, aiming to assess the functional subnetworks related to epileptic activity. Results for one subject were consistent with previous literature, encouraging a new spectrum of future analysis with this method.
