Brain-computer interface (BCI) operation: optimizing information transfer rates.
People can learn to control mu (8-12 Hz) or beta (18-25 Hz) rhythm amplitude in the EEG recorded over sensorimotor cortex and use it to move a cursor to a target on a video screen. In the present version of the cursor movement task, vertical cursor movement is a linear function of mu or beta rhythm amplitude. At the same time the cursor moves horizontally from left to right at a fixed rate. A t...
متن کاملInformation transmission rates of cat retinal ganglion cells.
To assess the information encoded in retinal spike trains and how it might be decoded by recipient neurons in the brain, we recorded from individual cat X and Y ganglion cells and visually stimulated them with randomly modulated patterns of various contrast and spatial configuration. For each pattern, we estimated the information rate of the cells using linear or nonlinear algorithms and for so...
متن کاملMusic drives brain plasticity
Music is becoming more and more of an issue in the cognitive neurosciences. A major finding in this research area is that musical practice is associated with structural and functional plasticity of the brain. In this brief review, I will give an overview of the most recent findings of this research area.
متن کاملBeta drives brain beats
Beta-band oscillations in basal gangliacortical loops have been shown to be linked to motor function in both healthy and pathological states (Brown, 2007; Engel and Fries, 2010). As well as coordinating motor activity, for instance when we synchronize our movements to a beat, the basal ganglia including the putamen and the caudate are said to contain specialized timekeeping mechanisms for perce...
