A common observation in EEG research is that consciousness vanishes with the
appearance of delta (1–4 Hz) waves, particularly when those waves are high amplitude …

Over the last years, a surge of empirical studies converged on complexity-related measures
as reliable markers of consciousness across many different conditions, such as sleep …

The biological basis of consciousness is one of the most challenging and fundamental
questions in 21st century science. A related pursuit aims to identify the neural correlates and …

Quantification of complexity in neurophysiological signals has been studied using different
methods, especially those from information or dynamical system theory. These studies have …

To explain consciousness as a physical process we must acknowledge the role of energy in
the brain. Energetic activity is fundamental to all physical processes and causally drives …

Clinical and experimental data from the last nine decades indicate that the preoptic area of
the hypothalamus is a critical node in a brain network that controls sleep onset and …

Neural networks have become a powerful tool in various domains of scientific research and
industrial applications. However, the inner workings of this tool remain unknown, which …

In this paper we address the following problems and provide realistic answers to them:(1)
What could be the physical substrate for subjective, phenomenal, consciousness (P …

The maximum entropy production principle (MEPP) was repeatedly and independently
proposed in the mid-20th century in various fields of physics and proved to be extremely …

The present research aims at examining the power spectrum and exploring functional brain
connectivity/disconnectivity during concentration performance, as measured by the d2 test of …
