Seed-based correlation method and independent component analysis (ICA)-based method have been used to extract the resting-state brain networks from fMRI data. Both methods require either prior knowledge of brain anatomy or selection of unordered spatial sources. Here, we investigate a data-driven spectral clustering algorithm to study brain networks for resting-state arterial spin labeling (ASL) and blood-oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) fMRI data. The spectral clustering algorithm successfully separates the brain resting-state networks and rank the non-neural noises at last. It is of great benefit to use ASL to study brain resting-state networks because of the largely reduced non-neural noise sources.
