The multiple time scales of sleep dynamics as a challenge for modelling the sleeping brain BY ECKEHARD OLBRICH1,*, JENS

چکیده
A particular property of the sleeping brain is that it exhibits dynamics on very different time scales ranging from the typical sleep oscillations such as sleep spindles and slow waves that can be observed in electroencephalogram (EEG) segments of several seconds duration over the transitions between the different sleep stages on a time scale of minutes to the dynamical processes involved in sleep regulation with typical time constants in the range of hours. There is an increasing body of work on mathematical and computational models addressing these different dynamics, however, usually considering only processes on a single time scale. In this paper, we review and present a new analysis of the dynamics of human sleep EEG at the different time scales and relate the findings to recent modelling efforts pointing out both the achievements and remaining challenges.

متن کاملThe sleeping brain as a dynamical system - insights from time series analysis of the human sleep EEG
The human sleep EEG is studied using a dynamical system approach to the sleeping brain. The dynamics of the sleeping brain is governed by multiple time scales: ranging from the typical EEG oscillations at 1 − 30 Hz up to the ≈ 24h circadian rhythm. Starting point is the fastest time scale the sleep oscillations. They are described by modeling the EEG using adaptive linear models. The slower dyn...

The phenomenon of sleep is an active nervous and biologic rhythm, which is under influence of neurotransmitters of central nervous system. In this study, the influence of serotonergic system on sleeping time have been assessed by agonist-antagonist drugs using two methods of induction and non-induction behavioral and electrophysiology. The method used for measurement of total sleeing time was A...
