Electroencephalography and High-Density Electrophysiological Source Localization
In 1924, Hans Berger, a German psychiatrist, performed the first electroencephalographic (EEG) recording in humans (Berger, 1929), a discovery that was initially greeted with great skepticism by the scientific community. By recording from one electrode placed over the forehead and one over the occipital cortex, Berger discovered the existence of rhythmic activity oscillating at approximately 10...
متن کاملBrain Waves
Hans Berger (1873 – 1941) the German psychiatrist invented electroencephalography (EEG) for the recording of "brain waves" in 1924. He did this by measuring electrical activity in the brains of hospital patients with skull damage. He documented these alpha waves along with beta activity. He found that when alpha waves decrease and beta activity becomes dominant, we are fully awake. As he was th...
متن کاملCan Evolutionary-based Brain Map Be Used as a Complementary Diagnostic Tool with fMRI, CT and PET for Schizophrenic Patients?
Objective: In this research, a new approach termed as “evolutionary-based brain map†is presented as a diagnostic tool to classify schizophrenic and control subjects by distinguishing their electroencephalogram (EEG) features.Methods: Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is employed to find discriminative frequency bands from different EEG channels. By deploying the energy of those selected fr...
متن کاملNewborn EEG Seizure Detection Based on Interspike Space Distribution in the Time-Frequency Domain
This paper presents a new time-frequency based EEG seizure detection method. This method uses the distribution of interspike intervals as a criterion for discriminating between seizure and nonseizure activities. To detect spikes in the EEG, the signal is mapped into the time-frequency domain. The high instantaneous energy of spikes is reflected as a localized energy in time-frequency domain. Hi...
