Time-frequency and synchrony analysis of responses to steady-state auditory and musical stimuli from multichannel EEG
نویسندگان
چکیده
Brain responses to audio stimuli are analysed using data driven time-frequency analysis. This is achieved based on the electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings and with auditory chirps or music as the audio stimulus. The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is applied to multichannel EEG recordings, and the insight into the brain responses is provided by the analysis of the dynamics of auditory steady-state responses (ASSR). The proposed approach is further illustrated on the analysis of EEG responses to classical music. A comprehensive synchrony analysis is provided based on the visualization of EMD and spectrogram matching techniques. Simulation results illustrate the potential of the proposed approach in future brain computer/machine interfaces.

Electroencephalogram Steady State Response Sonification Focused on the Spatial and Temporal Properties
This paper describes a sonification approach of multichannel electroencephalogram (EEG) steady-state responses (SSR). The main purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of sonification as an analytic tool for SSR. The proposed sonification approach aims to observe the spatial property (i.e. location of strong brain activities) and temporal property (i.e. synchrony of wave forms ac...
متن کاملElectrical Brain Responses to an Auditory Illusion and the Impact of Musical Expertise
The presentation of two sinusoidal tones, one to each ear, with a slight frequency mismatch yields an auditory illusion of a beating frequency equal to the frequency difference between the two tones; this is known as binaural beat (BB). The effect of brief BB stimulation on scalp EEG is not conclusively demonstrated. Further, no studies have examined the impact of musical training associated wi...

Objectives: Automated Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) peak detection is a novel technique to facilitate the measurement of neural synchrony along the auditory pathway through the brainstem. Analyzing the location of the peaks in these signals and the time interval between them may be utilized either for analyzing the hearing process or detecting peripheral and central lesions in the human he...
متن کاملImproving Auditory Steady – State Response Detection Using Multichannel Eeg Signal Processing
The ability to hear and process sounds is crucial. For adults, the inevitable ongoing aging process reduces the quality of the speech and sounds one perceives. If this effect is allowed to evolve too far, social isolation may occur. For infants, a disability in processing sounds results in an inappropriate development of speech, language, and cognitive abilities. To reduce the handicap of heari...
متن کاملThe responses of horses to predator stimuli
It is not known whether the instincts of wild horses have remained strong during their centuries of domestication. Knowledge of this matter would give riders the opportunity to know more about the behavior of horses and consequently about safety for both horses and riders. In this current research, we studied the behavior of fifteen Caspian miniature horses of different ages and sexes using sti...
