Abstract Background 'Non-parametric directionality'(NPD) is a novel method for estimation of
directed functional connectivity (dFC) in neural data. The method has previously been …

OBJECTIVE: Recent reports show that theta-band (4–7Hz) power is enhanced by target
detection in the standard oddball paradigm, which, together with increased P300, is …

The current paper focuses on a relatively new and promising area of the study of EEG
transformations during brain information processing based on the reduction of the signal to …

The attentional blink (AB) phenomenon occurs when perceivers must report two targets
embedded in a sequence of distracters; if the first target precedes the second by 200-600 …

The general spatiotemporal covariance matrix of the background noise in MEG/EEG signals
is huge. To reduce the dimensionality of this matrix it is modeled as a Kronecker product of a …

Hierarchically organized brains communicate through feedforward (FF) and feedback (FB)
pathways. In mammals, FF and FB are mediated by higher and lower frequencies during …

Cortical activity evoked by repeated identical sensory stimulation is extremely variable. The
source of this variability is often assigned to “random ongoing background activity” which is …

Discrimination between patients in vegetative (VS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) is
currently based upon the behavioral gold standard. Behavioral assessment remains …

With an aging population, it is common to encounter people diagnosed with peripheral
vascular disease (PVD). Some will undergo surgeries during which the spinal cord may be …

Source separation problems are ubiquitous in the physical sciences; any situation where
signals are superimposed calls for source separation to estimate the original signals. In this …
