Neural oscillations in various distinct frequency bands and their interrelations yield high temporal resolution signatures of the human brain activity. This study demonstrates solutions to some of the common challenges in the analysis of neurophysiological data by means of subthalamic local field potentials (LFP) acquired form patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) undergoing deep brain stimulation therapy. Multivariate empirical mode decomposition (MEMD), being a data-driven method suitable for multichannel data, is employed. This method allows identification of oscillatory bands without the requirement of fixed a priori basis functions. Our study focuses on two issues: (i) Determination of data specific frequency bands and revealing the weak inconspicuous high frequency components in the data and (ii) validation of the biological meaningfulness of the MEMD oscillatory components via phase-amplitude coupling as previously shown to be inherent in subcortical PD LFP data.

Computational analysis of network activity and spatial reach of sharp wave-ripples Canakci, Sadullah; Toy, Muhammed Faruk; Inci, Ahmet Fatih; Liu, Xin; Kuzum, Duygu (Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017-9-15) Network oscillations of different frequencies, durations and amplitudes are hypothesized to coordinate information processing and transfer across brain areas. Among these oscillations, hippocampal sharp wave-ripple complexes (SPW-Rs) are one of the most prominent. SPW-Rs occurring in the hippocampus are suggested to play essential roles in memory consolidation as well as information transfer to the neocortex. To-date, most of the knowledge about SPW-Rs comes from experimental studies averaging responses fro...
A Sparse Temporal Mesh Model for Brain Decoding Afrasiyabi, Arman; Onal, Itir; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2016-08-23) One of the major drawbacks of brain decoding from the functional magnetic resonance images (fMRI) is the very high dimension of feature space which consists of thousands of voxels in sequence of brain volumes, recorded during a cognitive stimulus. In this study, we propose a new architecture, called Sparse Temporal Mesh Model (STMM), which reduces the dimension of the feature space by combining the voxel selection methods with the mesh learning method. We, first, select the "most discriminative" voxels usin...
A critical note on the definition of phase-amplitude cross-frequency coupling Özkurt, Tolga Esat; Schnitzler, Alfons (2011-10-01) Recent studies have observed the ubiquity of phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) phenomenon in human and animal brain recordings. While various methods were performed to quantify it, a rigorous analytical definition of PAC is lacking. This paper yields an analytical definition and accordingly offers theoretical insights into some of the current methods. A direct PAC estimator based on the given definition is presented and shown theoretically to be superior to some of the previous methods such as general linear m...
Representation of Cognitive Processes Using the Minimum Spanning Tree of Local Meshes Firat, Orhan; Ozay, Mete; Onal, Itir; GİLLAM, İLKE; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2013-07-07) A new graphical model called Cognitive Process Graph (CPG) is proposed, for classifying cognitive processes based on neural activation patterns which are acquired via functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) in brain. In the CPG, first local meshes are formed around each voxel. Second, the relationships between a voxel and its neighbors in a local mesh, which are estimated by using a linear regression model, are used to form the edges among the voxels (graph nodes) in the CPG. Then, a minimum spanning t...
Hierarchical multi-resolution mesh networks for brain decoding Ertugrul, Itir Onal; Ozay, Mete; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-08-01) Human brain is supposed to process information in multiple frequency bands. Therefore, we can extract diverse information from functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data by processing it at multiple resolutions. We propose a framework, called Hierarchical Multi-resolution Mesh Networks (HMMNs), which establishes a set of brain networks at multiple resolutions of fMRI signal to represent the underlying cognitive process. Our framework, first, decomposes the fMRI signal into various frequency subbands ...
