Characterizing brain connectivity between neural signals is key to understanding brain function. Current measures such as coherence heavily rely on Fourier or wavelet transform, which inevitably assume the signal stationarity and place severe limits on its time-frequency resolution. Here we addressed these issues by introducing a noise-assisted instantaneous coherence (NAIC) measure based on mu...

Cerebral autoregulation represents the physiological mechanisms that keep brain perfusion relatively constant in the face of changes in blood pressure and thus plays an essential role in normal brain function. This study assessed cerebral autoregulation in nine newborns with moderate-to-severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). These neonates received hypothermic therapy during the first 72...

This paper considers the uplink pilot overhead in a time division duplexing (TDD) massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) mobile systems. A common scenario of conventional massive MIMO systems is a Base Station (BS) serving all user terminals (UTs) in the cell with the same TDD frame format that fits the coherence interval of the worst-case scenario of user mobility (e.g. a moving train w...

justise is a word-a concept and a phenomenon. the phenomenon- concept and word of justise is like politics very easy and at the same time very difficult. political justise is justise in politics and justly politics. political justise - justise in politics and justly politics is equilibrium between or middle economic development and cultural transcendental. transcendental justise is in front of ...

A novel hierarchical semicoherent technique is presented for all-sky surveys for continuous gravitational-wave sources, such as rapidly spinning non-axisymmetric neutron stars. Analyzing year-long detector data sets over realistic ranges of parameter space using fully-coherent matched-filtering is computationally prohibitive. Thus more efficient, so-called hierarchical techniques are essential....

This article advocates using EEG coherence of specific brain areas as an internal indicator of mental effort [10] during learning processes in human brain. Preliminary results show that coherence between functionally coupled brain areas reflect partial processes in course of training – which are not reflected when we consider only reaction times. Analysis of coherence in β1and θ-frequency bands...

Long coherence times are key to the performance of quantum bits (qubits). Here, we experimentally and theoretically show that the Hahn-echo coherence time of electron spins associated with divacancy defects in 4H-SiC reaches 1.3 ms, one of the longest Hahn-echo coherence times of an electron spin in a naturally isotopic crystal. Using a first-principles microscopic quantum-bath model, we find t...

We provide a detailed and quantitative Fokker-Planck analysis of noise-induced periodicity (stochastic coherence, also known as coherence resonance) in both a discrete-time model and a continuous-time model of excitable neurons. In particular, we show that one-dimensional models can explain why the effects of noise added to the fast and slow dynamics of the models are dramatically different. We...

The electronic excitation population and coherence dynamics in the chromophores of the photosynthetic light harvesting complex 2 (LH2) B850 ring from purple bacteria (Rhodopseudomonas acidophila) have been studied theoretically at both physiological and cryogenic temperatures. Similar to the well-studied Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) protein, oscillations of the excitation population and coherence...
