Ear-Centered Sensing: From Sensing Principles to Research and Clinical Devices, Volume II
This Research Topic is part of the Ear-Centered Sensing: From Sensing Principles to Research and Clinical Devices series: From Sensing Principles to Research and Clinical Devices, Volume I The human ears are an attractive location for bio-signal acquisition. Heart rate, respiratory rate, eye blink and eye motion signals and skin conductance, as well as the electrical activity from muscles and the brain can be recorded from the ear. Moreover, the ears provide a discreet and natural anchoring point for placing the necessary wearable hardware, thereby reducing the visibility of integrated devices. We define ear-centered sensing as monitoring physiological signals with sensors located in the ear...
EEG - fMRI
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and Electronecephalography (EEG) are very important and complementary modalities since fMRI offers high spatial resolution and EEG is a direct measurement of neuronal activity with high temporal resolution. Interest in the integration of both types of data is growing rapidly as it promises to provide important new insights into human brain activity as it has already done so in the field of epilepsy. The availability of good quality instrumentation capable of providing interference-free data in both modalities means that electrophysiological and haemodynamic characteristics of individual brain events can be captured for the first time. Consequently...
Quantitative EEG Analysis Methods and Clinical Applications
This authoritative volume provides an overview of basic and advanced techniques used in quantitative EEG (qEEG) analysis. The book provides a wide range of mathematical tools used in qEEG, from single channel discriptors to the interactions among multi-channel EEG analysis. Moreover, you find coverage of the latest and most popular application in the field, including mental and neurological disease detection/monitoring, physiological and cognitive phenomena research, and fMRI.
Handbook of Neuroimaging Data Analysis
This book explores various state-of-the-art aspects behind the statistical analysis of neuroimaging data. It examines the development of novel statistical approaches to model brain data. Designed for researchers in statistics, biostatistics, computer science, cognitive science, computer engineering, biomedical engineering, applied mathematics, physics, and radiology, the book can also be used as a textbook for graduate-level courses in statistics and biostatistics or as a self-study reference for Ph.D. students in statistics, biostatistics, psychology, neuroscience, and computer science.
Neuroeconomics
This book represents one of the cornerstones of the series Studies in Neuroscience, Psychology and Behavioral Economics. It is divided into eight sections, starting with an introduction to neuroeconomics followed by an overview of frequently applied experimental paradigms (games) in neuroeconomics research. Furthermore, it addresses the molecular basis of human decision making, environmental/situational factors and social contexts influencing human decision making, as well as translational and developmental/clinical approaches to neuroeconomics. In closing, a paper on neuro-marketing demonstrates how knowledge from neuroeconomics research can be applied in “real life.” Culminating in an extensive methods section, in which eight different neuroscience techniques are introduced, the book offers an essential resource for researchers and practitioners, and may also be beneficial for graduate students.
Single-Trial Analyses of Behavioural and Neuroimaging Data in Perception and Decision-Making
The cognitive psychology of perception and decision-making is at a cross-road. Most studies still employ categorical designs, a priori classified stimuli and perform statistical evaluations across subjects. However, a shift has been observed in recent years towards parametric designs in which the information content of stimuli is systematically manipulated to study the single-trial dynamics of behaviour (reaction times, eye movements) and brain activity (EEG, MEG, fMRI). By using the information contained in the variance of individual trials, the single-trial approach goes beyond the activity of the average brain: it reveals the specificity of information processing in individual subjects, a...
Exploring Motor Imagery Across the Lifespan – Gaps Between Practical Applications and Theoretical Frameworks
Motor imagery (MI), a multisensorial mental representation of the image of actions (or objects and situations), without an actual experience and without appropriate sensory input that activates motor control regions in the brain without physical execution, provides insights into the link between motor control and cognitive function. This process promotes learning and improves motor skills, often in combination with physical practice, in both healthy and clinical populations. It is therefore used in various areas such as education, rehabilitation, music, and sport throughout the human lifespan. In the first years of life, the development of MI runs parallel to neuronal and physical growth, wh...
Biological Sciences and Environmental Health
The book captures the essence of the First International Conference on Frontiers of Biological Sciences and Environmental Health (FBSEH 2023). It provides a comprehensive roadmap to achieving sovereignty, security and safety of human health by adopting a multi-disciplinary approach to disease diagnosis, mitigation and prevention. These proceedings contains a repository of unique ideas, cutting edge research methodologies and exhaustive studies by experts, scholars from all over the world. It touches upon a wide array of topics including advances in bioengineering and genetic technologies, nutrition and disease prevention, emerging therapeutic strategies and drug delivery, along with the advent of microfluidics, wearables, and medical devices. It highlights innovative research contributions and practical applications that would prove critical in fighting cancer and genetic disorders in the future. This is a highly beneficial guide to university professors, research scholars and medical professionals in the rapidly evolving fields such as microbiology, biotechnology, biomedical engineering, molecular medicine, public health and community medicine, and healthcare sciences.
