TL;DR: In this article, a statistical pattern recognition method based on AR model was introduced to discriminate the electroencephalograph (EEG) signals recorded during right and left motor imagery And learning methods were investigated Also, correlation between C3 and C4 signals were investigated, and thereby which AR (combine AR or multivariable AR) model must be used in each EEC recording method

TL;DR: Contrary to expectations ED-groups did not systematically show greater involvement of the hemisphere contralateral to the dominant ear, and LED and RED were characterized by a response-dependent cortical activation pattern.

TL;DR: Brain-stem auditory evoked potential measurements in the intensive care unit found BAEPs of a quality satisfactory for diagnosis were found in 90% of patients, but about 10% of the measurements were distorted by artifacts and could not be used for diagnostic purposes.
Abstract: Ninety patients were subjected to brain-stem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) measurements in the intensive care unit. The data are analyzed and discussed with respect to their quality, reliability, and reproducibility. BAEPs of a quality satisfactory for diagnosis were found in 90% of the patients. About 10% of the measurements were distorted by artifacts and could not be used for diagnostic purposes. Reasons for these artifacts and problems of interpretation are discussed. Examples of single BAEPs and on-line monitoring of BAEPs in the form of "compressed BAEPs" are shown.

TL;DR: The brain has the ability to generate rhythmic activities in a broad range, whereby components within the alpha, beta and gamma bands play an important role in sensory processing and motor behavior.
Abstract: The brain has the ability to generate rhythmic activities in a broad range, whereby components within the alpha, beta and gamma bands play an important role in sensory processing and motor behavior. One of the first groups to record EEG from the intact skull during sensory stimulation was Jasper and Andrew (1938), who reported on alpha components from 8–13 Hz, beta components from 17–30 Hz and possible gamma components from 35–48 Hz. Their main finding was that precentral beta potentials were independent of the occipital alpha potentials in response to sensory stimulation.

TL;DR: EELAB as mentioned in this paper is a toolbox and graphic user interface for processing collections of single-trial and/or averaged EEG data of any number of channels, including EEG data, channel and event information importing, data visualization (scrolling, scalp map and dipole model plotting, plus multi-trial ERP-image plots), preprocessing (including artifact rejection, filtering, epoch selection, and averaging), Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and time/frequency decomposition including channel and component cross-coherence supported by bootstrap statistical methods based on data resampling.

TL;DR: This book by a teacher of statistics (as well as a consultant for "experimenters") is a comprehensive study of the philosophical background for the statistical design of experiment.
Abstract: THE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTS. By Oscar Kempthorne. New York, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1952. 631 pp. $8.50. This book by a teacher of statistics (as well as a consultant for \"experimenters\") is a comprehensive study of the philosophical background for the statistical design of experiment. It is necessary to have some facility with algebraic notation and manipulation to be able to use the volume intelligently. The problems are presented from the theoretical point of view, without such practical examples as would be helpful for those not acquainted with mathematics. The mathematical justification for the techniques is given. As a somewhat advanced treatment of the design and analysis of experiments, this volume will be interesting and helpful for many who approach statistics theoretically as well as practically. With emphasis on the \"why,\" and with description given broadly, the author relates the subject matter to the general theory of statistics and to the general problem of experimental inference.

TL;DR: The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or her own research.
Abstract: I have developed "tennis elbow" from lugging this book around the past four weeks, but it is worth the pain, the effort, and the aspirin. It is also worth the (relatively speaking) bargain price. Including appendixes, this book contains 894 pages of text. The entire panorama of the neural sciences is surveyed and examined, and it is comprehensive in its scope, from genomes to social behaviors. The editors explicitly state that the book is designed as "an introductory text for students of biology, behavior, and medicine," but it is hard to imagine any audience, interested in any fragment of neuroscience at any level of sophistication, that would not enjoy this book. The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or

TL;DR: With adequate recognition and effective engagement of all issues, BCI systems could eventually provide an important new communication and control option for those with motor disabilities and might also give those without disabilities a supplementary control channel or a control channel useful in special circumstances.
