Correlation-dimension and autocorrelation fluctuations in epileptic seizure dynamics.

چکیده
We focus on an anomalous scaling region in correlation integral [C(epsilon)] analysis of electrocorticogram in epilepsy patients. We find that epileptic seizures typically are accompanied by wide fluctuations in the slope of this scaling region. An explanation, based on analyzing the interplay between the autocorrelation and C(epsilon), is provided for these fluctuations. This anomalous slope appears to be a sensitive measure for tracking (but not predicting) seizures.

On the evidence for how-dimensional chaos in an epileptic electroencephalogram
A variant of the method of surrogate data is applied to a single time series from an electroencephalogram (EEG) recording of a patient undergoing an epileptic seizure. The time series is a nearly periodic pattern of spike-and-wave complexes. The surrogate data sets are generated by shuffling the individual spike-and-wave cycles, and correspond to a null hypothesis that there is no deterministic...

متن کاملEpileptic Seizure: A New Approach for Quantification of Autonomic Deregulation with Chaos Based Technique
Background: Epileptic seizures can lead to changes in autonomic function affecting the sympathetic, parasympathetic and enteric nervous systems. Changes in cardiac signals are potential biomarkers that may provide an extracerebral indicator of ictal onset in some patients. Patients suffering from epilepsy experience some significant cardiac changes during seizure, causing some serious cardiac m...
متن کاملPreictal Dynamics of EEG Complexity in Intracranially Recorded Epileptic Seizure
Recent findings suggest that neural complexity reflecting a number of independent processes in the brain may characterize typical changes during epileptic seizures and may enable to describe preictal dynamics. With respect to previously reported findings suggesting specific changes in neural complexity during preictal period, we have used measure of pointwise correlation dimension (PD2) as a se...
متن کاملLow - dimensional chaos in an instance of epilepsy ( chaotic attractors / electroencephalogram / Lyapunov exponents / phase space )
Using a time series obtained from the electroencephalogram recording of a human epileptic seizure, we show the existence of a chaotic attractor, the latter being the direct consequence of the deterministic nature of brain activity. This result is compared with other attractors seen in normal human brain dynamics. A sudden jump is observed between the dimensionalities of these brain attractors (...
