Setting Up the Speech Production Network: How Oscillations Contribute to Lateralized Information Routing

Setting Up the Speech Production Network: How Oscillations Contribute to Lateralized Information Routing

Speech production involves widely distributed brain regions. This MEG study focuses on the spectro-temporal dynamics that contribute to the setup of this network. In 21 participants performing a cue-target reading paradigm, we analyzed local oscillations during preparation for overt and covert reading in the time-frequency domain and localized sources using beamforming. Network dynamics were st...

burden of gastrointestinal cancers and problem of the incomplete information; how to make up the data?

cancer registration is an important source for measuring the burden of cancer in a population. in practice, however, quite frequently incorrect patients are registered or data items can be inaccurately recorded or not recorded at all. also the process or quality of these registrations varies among countries. in this paper, we briefly discussed some statistical techniques including; mortality an...

How Patent Information Can Contribute to Sustainable Development

Intellectual property rights are an important driver of innovation and productivity in the knowledge-based economy. In particular, intellectual property rights in the form of patents may also be a valuable source of technical and scientific information and ideas on how to address environmental and health and safety concerns associated with industrial activity. In the network age, many smalland ...

How different spatial-frequency components contribute to visual information acquisition.

We test 3 theories of global and local scene information acquisition, defining global and local in terms of spatial frequencies. By independence theories, high- and low-spatial-frequency information are acquired over the same time course and combine additively. By global-precedence theories, global information acquisition precedes local information acquisition, but they combine additively. By i...
