In three experiments, electric brain waves of 19 subjects were recorded under several different experimental conditions for two purposes. One was to test how well we could recognize which sentence, from a set of 24 or 48 sentences, was being processed in the cortex. The other was to study the invariance of brain waves between subjects. As in our earlier work, the analysis consisted of averaging...

Both intuitively, and according to similarity-based theories of induction, relevant evidence raises argument strength when it is positive and lowers it when it is negative. In three experiments, we tested the hypothesis that argument strength can actually increase when negative evidence is introduced. Two kinds of argument were compared through forced choice or sequential evaluation: single pos...

ANIMA has as a primary objective to compare three non conventional human computer interfaces that comply with the industrial robot ST Robotics R-17 instructions. This module, Alpha Waves Related Potentials -ARPexplains how brain waves are obtained, processed, analyzed and identified depending on their frequency. This module makes use of the Open EEG Project’s open hardware monitor for brain wav...

When two stimuli are to be processed in rapid succession, reaction time (RT) to the second stimulus is delayed. The slowing of RT has been attributed to a single processing bottleneck at response selection (RS) or to a central bottleneck following the initiation of the first response. The hypothesis of a response initiation bottleneck is mainly based on reports of underadditive interactions bet...

Acupuncture is the most frequently used treatment method among the complementary medicine practices. Acupuncture practices mainly affect the somatic and autonomic nervous systems in the nervous system. It is important to understand the mechanism of action of acupuncture practices especially in the central nervous system. Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the best techniques to explain the ...

In two experiments, electric brain waves of 14 subjects were recorded under several different conditions to study the invariance of brain-wave representations of simple patches of colors and simple visual shapes and their names, the words blue, circle, etc. As in our earlier work, the analysis consisted of averaging over trials to create prototypes and test samples, to both of which Fourier tra...

This paper is for the study of feature analysis of the correlation of brain waves between channels in the stimulation of the 5 senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste). In the existing studies, feature analysis of brain waves in response to stimulation of the human senses has been made by single sense stimulation or double sense stimulation, but, study with stimulation of all 5 senses is st...
