TL;DR: It has been well over a century since it was discovered that the mammalian brain generates a small but measurable electrical signal, and the understanding and interpretation of EEG’s remain quite elusive.
Abstract: It has been well over a century since it was discovered that the mammalian brain generates a small but measurable electrical signal The electroencephalogram ( EEG ) of small animals was measured by Caton in 1875, and in man by Berger in 1925 It had been thought by the mathematician N Wiener, among others, that generalized harmonic analysis would provide the mathematical tools necessary to penetrate the mysterious relations between the EEG time series and the functioning of the brain The progress along this path has been slow however, and the understanding and interpretation of EEG’s remain quite elusive
