چکیده

The α predominant electroencephalographic (EEG) recording of the human brain during eyes-closed and-open is studied using the zero-crossing time statistics. We found evidence of fractal characteristics which is otherwise ambiguous from the power spectrum or detrend fluctuation analysis. Our results indicate a reverse relationship between the degree of fractal fluctuation and the α rhythm intensity. Implications to the α brain state are discussed.

Scaling of the Background Brain Dynamics and Alpha Ryhthm

The scaling property of the brain dynamics is studied based on the zero-crossing of the local electroencephalographic (EEG) recording taken from healthy young adults in eyes closed and eyes open. Evidence of coupling between the EEG fractal dynamics and the α rhythm is presented. An organization principle that governs this coupling relationship is proposed. In the α dominant brain state, a poss...

Suggesting a new alternative method of measuring mental disorders without the use of Paper-Pencil tests based on EEG

Background and aims: Paper-pencil tests have always its own problems in the mental disorders evaluation, including learning questions, bad or good blazon are the problems with this methodology. This study aimed to propose a new alternative method of measuring mental disorders without paper-pencil test using EEG. Methods: The research society involved depr...

THE SCALING LAW FOR THE DISCRETE KINETIC GROWTH PERCOLATION MODEL

The Scaling Law for the Discrete Kinetic Growth Percolation Model The critical exponent of the total number of finite clusters α is calculated directly without using scaling hypothesis both below and above the percolation threshold pc based on a kinetic growth percolation model in two and three dimensions. Simultaneously, we can calculate other critical exponents β and γ, and show that the scal...

Multifractional Property Analysis of Human Sleep EEG signals

Electroencephalogram (EEG), the measures and records of the electrical activity of the brain, exhibits evidently nonlinear, non-stationary, chaotic and complex dynamic properties. Based on these properties, many nonlinear dynamical analysis techniques have emerged, and much valuable information has been extracted from complex EEG signals using these nonlinear analysis techniques. Among these te...

Hölder Regularity for Operator Scaling Stable Random Fields

Abstract. We investigate the sample paths regularity of operator scaling α-stable random fields. Such fields were introduced in [6] as anisotropic generalizations of self-similar fields and satisfy the scaling property {X(cx);x ∈ R} (fdd) = {cX(x);x ∈ R} where E is a d× d real matrix and H > 0. In the case of harmonizable operator scaling random fields, the sample paths are locally Hölderian an...
