  "abstract": "Dynamic heterogeneity is expected to be a key concept for understanding the origin of slow dynamics near the glass transition. In previous studies, quantitative evaluations of dynamic heterogeneity have been attempted using two different routes, i.e., the speckle patterns in scattering experiments or the four-body correlation functions of microscopic configuration data obtained from molecular dynamics simulations or real-space observations using confocal microscopy. However, the physical relationship between these dynamic heterogeneities obtained using different methods has not been clarified. This study proposes a connection between dynamic heterogeneities characterized based on speckle patterns and those obtained from four-body correlations. The validity of the relationship is also clarified.",
