  • Electroencephalography (Eeg) and Its Use in Motor Learning And
    ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHY (EEG) AND ITS USE IN MOTOR LEARNING AND CONTROL by Tyler Thorley Whittier July, 2017 Director of Thesis: Dr. Nicholas Murray Major Department: Kinesiology Electroencephalography (EEG) is a non-invasive technique of measuring electric currents generated from active brain regions and is a useful tool for researchers interested in motor control. The study of motor learning and control seeks to understand the way the brain understands, plans and executes movement both physical and imagined. Thus, the purpose of this study was to better understand the ways in which electroencephalography can be used to measure regions of the brain involved with motor control and learning. For this purpose, two independent studies were completed using EEG to monitor brain activity during both executed and imagined actions. The first study sought to understand the cognitive demand of altering a running gait and provides EEG evidence of motor learning. 13 young healthy runners participated in a 6-week in-field gait-retraining program that altered running gait by increasing step rate (steps per minute) by 5-10%. EEG was collected while participants ran on a treadmill with their original gait as a baseline measurement. After the baseline collection, participants ran for one minute at the same speed with a 5-10% step rate increase while EEG was collected. Participants then participated in a 6-week in-field gait-retraining program in which they received bandwith feedback while running in order to learn the new gait. After completing the 6-week training protocol, participants returned to the lab for post training EEG collection while running with the new step rate.

The only commonality is motor paralysis. It may be the paralysis of a single limb or paralysis of all four limbs and may include paralysis of facial muscles or respiratory muscles amongst other motor disabilities. Each patient requires individualized management. Rehabilitation of these patients includes the use of mechanical assistance devices to perform daily chores such as lifting an object or closing a door. This project intended to use a humanoid robot to do these tasks using brain signals from the sensory motor cortex, the mu-rhythm, which would be programmed to convert the relevant brain signals into a command signal for the robot using a non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI).

Controlling, manipulating, or gaining greater awareness of these functions can be done through the process of Biofeedback. Biofeedback is a process that enables an individual to learn how to change voluntary movements for purposes of improving health and performance through the means of instruments such as EEG which rapidly and accurately 'feedback' information to the user. Biofeedback is used for therapeutic purpose for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) by focusing on Mu waves for detecting anomalies in brain wave patterns of mirror neurons. Conventional EEG measurement systems use gel based gold cup electrodes, attached to the scalp with adhesive. It is obtrusive and wires sticking out of the electrodes to signal acquisition system make them impractical for use in sensitive subjects like infants and children with ASD. To remedy this, sensors can be incorporated with skull cap and baseball cap that are commonly used for infants and children.

  • The Infant Mirror Neuron System Studied with High Density EEG
    Preliminary manuscript, do not quote without permission The infant mirror neuron system studied with high density EEG Author: Nyström Pär. Dep. of Psychology, Box 1225 Uppsala University, 751 42 Uppsala, Sweden Corresponding author: Email: [email protected] Phone (46) 18 471 5752 Fax: (46) 18 471 2123 Running title: EEG of the infant mirror neuron system Keywords: EEG, ERP, mu, desynchronization, infant, mirror 1 Abstract The mirror neuron system has been suggested to play a role in many social capabilities such as action understanding, imitation, language and empathy. These are all capabilities that develop during infancy and childhood, but the human mirror neuron system has been poorly studied using neurophysiological measures. This study measured the brain activity of 6 months old infants and adults using a high density EEG net with the aim of identifying mirror neuron activity. The subjects viewed both goal directed movements and non goal directed movements. An independent component analysis was used to extract the sources of cognitive processes. The desynchronization of the mu rhythm in adults has been shown to be a marker for activation of the mirror neuron system and was used as a criterion to categorize independent components between subjects. The results show significant mu desynchronization in the adult group and significantly higher ERP activation in both adults and 6 months for the goal directed action observation condition. This study demonstrate that infants as young as 6 months display mirror neuron activity and is the first to present a direct ERP measure of the mirror neuron system in infants. 2 Acknowledgements The author acknowledges the contribution of Robert Oostenveld for making the DIPFIT software available, as well as the whole EEGLAB developer group.

One success of the treatment given is the evaluation and monitoring during recovery. One device for monitoring the development of post-stroke patients is Electroencephalogram (EEG). This research proposed a method for extracting variables of EEG signals for post-stroke patient analysis using Wavelet and Self-Organizing Map Kohonen clustering. EEG signal was extracted by Wavelet to obtain Alpha, beta, theta, gamma, and Mu waves. These waves, the amplitude and asymmetric of the symmetric channel pairs are features in Self Organizing Map Kohonen Clustering. Clustering results were compared with actual clusters of post-stroke and no-stroke subjects to extract significant variable. These results showed that the configuration of Alpha, Beta, and Mu waves, amplitude together with the difference between the variable of symmetric channel pairs are significant in the analysis of post-stroke patients. The results gave using symmetric channel pairs provided 54-74% accuracy.

Previous research has suggested that a dysfunctional mirror neuron system may explain the pathology observed in ASD. Because EEG oscillations in the mu frequency (8–13 Hz) over sensorimotor cortex are thought to reflect mirror neuron activity, one method for testing the integrity of this system is to measure mu responsiveness to actual and observed movement. It has been established that mu power is reduced (mu suppression) in typically developing individuals both when they perform actions and when they observe others performing actions, reflecting an observation/execution system which may play a critical role in the ability to understand and imitate others’ behaviors. This study investigated whether individuals with ASD show a dysfunction in this system, given their behavioral impairments in understanding and responding appropriately to others’ behaviors.

  • Wikipedia.Org/W/Index.Php?Title=Neural Oscillation&Oldid=898604092"
    Neural oscillation Neural oscillations, or brainwaves, are rhythmic or repetitive patterns of neural activity in the central nervous system. Neural tissue can generate oscillatory activity in many ways, driven either by mechanisms within individual neurons or by interactions between neurons. In individual neurons, oscillations can appear either as oscillations in membrane potential or as rhythmic patterns of action potentials, which then produce oscillatory activation of post-synaptic neurons. At the level of neural ensembles, synchronized activity of large numbers of neurons can give rise to macroscopic oscillations, which can be observed in an electroencephalogram. Oscillatory activity in groups of neurons generally arises from feedback connections between the neurons that result in the synchronization of their firing patterns. The interaction between neurons can give rise to oscillations at a different frequency than the firing frequency of individual neurons. A well-known example of macroscopic neural oscillations is alpha activity. Neural oscillations were observed by researchers as early as 1924 (by Hans Berger). More than 50 years later, intrinsic oscillatory behavior was encountered in vertebrate neurons, but its functional role is still not fully understood.[1] The possible roles of neural oscillations include feature binding, information transfer mechanisms and the generation of rhythmic motor output. Over the last decades more insight has been gained, especially with advances in brain imaging. A major area of research in neuroscience involves determining how oscillations are generated and what their roles are. Oscillatory activity in the brain is widely observed at different levels of organization and is thought to play a key role in processing neural information.
