Rocca, “Characterizing Rapid Fluctuations of Resting State Functional Connectivity in Demyelinating, Neurodegenerative, and Psychiatric Conditions: From Static to Time-Varying Analysis”, in Roberto Esposito, Filippo Cieri, Nicoletta Cera, Dante Mantini, Alessandra Griffa, editors, Dynamic Functioning of Resting State Networks in Physiological and Pathological Conditions:

     Each eigenconnectivity pattern is characterized by a “contribution” (which can be thought as the equivalent of dwell times for k-means clustering analysis), which varies over time across subjects.
