  1. 16. Non-invasive EEG Functional Neuroimaging for Localizing Epileptic Brain Activity

    Författare :Yazdan Shirvany; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Somatosensory Evoked Potentials; Forward Problem; Inverse Problem; Mathematical Dipole; Epileptic Spike; Functional Neuroimaging; Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Particle Swarm Optimization; Source localization; Finite Element Method; Non-invasive EEG;

    Sammanfattning : Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic diseases in the world, and is present in up to 1% of the world’s population. Many patients with epilepsy never receive the treatment which make them seizure free. Surgical therapy has become an important therapeutic alternative for patients with drug resistant epilepsy.

  2. 17. Similarity-based processes in human multiple-cue judgment : evidence from brain imaging and cognitive modelling

    Författare :Sara Stillesjö; Linnea Karlsson Wirebring; Lars Nyberg; Håkan Nilsson; Alan Sanfey; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; multiple-cue judgment; similarity-based; rule-based; exemplar-based model; fMRI; cognitive modelling;

    Sammanfattning : Background: We often make judgments that require the consideration of several sources of information. For example, a teacher that grades a student´s exam question often integrates multiple sources of information (cues: details provided in the answer) into a single criterion dimension (the grade).

  3. 18. Cross-functional brain imaging of attention, memory, and executive functions : Unity and diversity of neurocognitive component processes

    Författare :Petter Marklund; Lars Nyberg; Akira Miyake; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Human memory; executive functions; prefrontal cortex; sustained and transient neural activity; declarative long-term memory; attention; working memory; functional neuroimaging; cognitive control.; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : The central theme of the present thesis revolves around the exploration of similarities and differences in brain activity patterns invoked by the component processes underlying mnemonic, executive and attentional functions. The primary aim was to identify and functionally characterize commonly recruited brain regions in terms of shared component processes, which has been a largely neglected area of research in cognitive neuroscience.

  4. 19. Human brains and virtual realities : Computer-generated presence in theory and practice

    Författare :Daniel Sjölie; Lars-Erik Janlert; Johan Eriksson; Giuseppe Riva; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human brain function; virtual reality; presence; cognitive neuroscience; human-computer interaction; brain imaging; fMRI; BCI; neural correlates; HCI theory; reality-based interaction.;

    Sammanfattning : A combined view of the human brain and computer-generated virtual realities is motivated by recent developments in cognitive neuroscience and human-computer interaction (HCI). The emergence of new theories of human brain function, together with an increasing use of realistic human-computer interaction, give reason to believe that a better understanding of the relationship between human brains and virtual realities is both possible and valuable.

  5. 20. Computational Medical Image Analysis : With a Focus on Real-Time fMRI and Non-Parametric Statistics

    Författare :Anders Eklund; Hans Knutsson; Mats Andersson; Stephen LaConte; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :functional magnetic resonance imaging; brain computer interfaces; canonical correlation analysis; random permutation test; graphics processing unit;

    Sammanfattning : Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a prime example of multi-disciplinary research. Without the beautiful physics of MRI, there wouldnot be any images to look at in the first place. To obtain images of goodquality, it is necessary to fully understand the concepts of the frequencydomain. LÄS MER
