Proposed Analysis: In networked systems, a local perturbation can propagate by following paths along the network of interactions between the system’s units. Such behaviour can lead to a large-scale cascade of interaction failures. We adapt a classical load-redistribution model and based on brain networks that have been investigated with diffusion MRI, conduct an analysis of the vulnerability and cosusceptibility of the corresponding brain networks. We find a group of nodes that can, potentially, fail simultaneously. The cascade model advances our understanding of linked failures in brain networks, and our results provide new insights in understanding disease progression in, e.g., Dementia.
