Anticipated synchronization in human EEG data: Unidirectional causality with negative phase lag

Phase synchronization in human EEG during audio-visual stimulation.

Synchrony of EEG data recorded under influence of audio-visual stimulation was investigated. Instantaneous phases were derived from Wavelet transform method. Phase synchronization is assessed quantitatively via measure derived from uniformity of phase difference distribution. EEG data came from 6 healthy volunteers repeatedly exposed to 20 min AVS program with intervals with stable stimulation ...

Modeling positive Granger causality and negative phase lag between cortical areas

Different measures of directional influence have been employed to infer effective connectivity in the brain. When the connectivity between two regions is such that one of them (the sender) strongly influences the other (the receiver), a positive phase lag is often expected. The assumption is that the time difference implicit in the relative phase reflects the transmission time of neuronal activ...

From Phase to Lag Synchronization in Coupled Chaotic Oscillators

We study synchronization transitions in a system of two coupled self-sustained chaotic oscillators. We demonstrate that with the increase of coupling strength the system first undergoes the transition to phase synchronization. With a further increase of coupling, a new synchronous regime is observed, where the states of two oscillators are nearly identical, but one system lags in time to the ot...

Phase-lag synchronization in networks of coupled chemical oscillators.

Chemical oscillators with a broad frequency distribution are photochemically coupled in network topologies. Experiments and simulations show that the network synchronization occurs by phase-lag synchronization of clusters of oscillators with zero- or nearly zero-lag synchronization. Symmetry also plays a role in the synchronization, the extent of which is explored as a function of coupling stre...
