TL;DR: In this paper, a multiparametrischer Meßplatz vorgestellt for synchronisation of Aufzeichnung, Verarbeitung, and Speicherung of Elektroenzephalogramm (EEG) is presented.
Abstract: Zur Erfassung und Beurteilung spontaner biologischer Oszillationen von Patienten im Bereich der Anästhesiologie und Intensivmedizin wird ein computerisierter multiparametrischer Meßplatz vorgestellt. Die Methodik bietet die Möglichkeit zur synchronen Aufzeichnung, Verarbeitung und Speicherung von Elektroenzephalogramm (EEG) , Atemfrequenz (AF) , Atemfrequenzvariabilität (AV) , Herzrate ( H R ) , Herzratenvariabilität (HRV), Mikrotremor bzw. Aktogramm (MT), Sauerstoffsättigung (SaO2), Temperatur (Tl=Raumtemp.; T2=axil. Temp.) und Blutdruck (BP). Offline können z.B. die Barorezeptorreflexsensitivität (aQ) und verschiedenste Spektralparameter (EEG, HRV, Atmung) bestimmt werden.

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.
