The concept of linked oscillators in biological control systems has long been established. Frequency entrainment is a predominant explanation behind many biological rhythms. In this paper a preliminary examination of electroencephalographic entrainment is made to survey the possibility and methods of achieving signal entrainment at the highest level of neurological organization and function. A ...

BACKGROUND Advanced methods of signal analysis of the preictal and ictal activity dynamics characterizing absence epilepsy in humans with absences and in genetic animal models have revealed new and unknown electroencephalographic characteristics, that has led to new insights and theories. NEW METHOD Taking into account that some network associations can be considered as nonlinear, an adaptive...

Brain–computer interface (BCI) aim at providing a non-muscular channel for sending commands to the external world using the electroencephalographic activity or other Electrophysiological measures of the brain function. An essential factor in the successful operation of BCI systems is the methods used to process the brain signals. In the BCI Literature, comprehensive survey of the signal process...

Abstract: We present an estimator design to reconstruct the mean membrane potential of individual neuronal populations from a single channel simulated electroencephalographic signal based on a model of the hippocampus. The robustness of the estimator against variations in the synaptic gains of the neuronal populations and disturbances in the input and measurement is studied. Our results are fur...

The paper describes the development of a reusable electrode system for non-invasive brain–computer interface application with signal quality comparable to that conventional wet Ag/AgCl electrodes. innovative consists polyvinyl alcohol–glycerol–NaCl contact hydrogel and 3D-printed, silver-coated polylactic acid body. Advantageous features proposed are comfortable use, reusability, long shelf lif...

Insight occurs when problem solutions arise suddenly and seem obviously correct, and is associated with an "Aha!" experience. Prior theorizing concerning preparation that facilitates insight focused on solvers' problem-specific knowledge. We hypothesized that a distinct type of mental preparation, manifested in a distinct brain state, would facilitate insight problem solving independently of pr...
