X Abstract

Numerous reports have shown that performing working-memory tasks causes an elevated rhythmic coupling in different areas of the brain; it has been suggested that this indicates information exchange. Since the information exchanged is encoded in brain waves and measurable by electroencephalography (EEG) it is reasonable to assume that it can be extracted with an appropriate method. In our study we made an attempt to extract the information using an artificial neural network (ANN), which can be considered as a stimulus-response model with a state observer. The EEG was recorded from three subjects while they performed a modified Sternberg task that required them to respond to each task with the answer "true" or "false". The study revealed that a stimulus-response model can successfully be identified by observing phase-demodulated theta-band EEG signals 1 s prior to a subject's answer. The results also showed that it was possible to predict the answers from the EEG signals with an average reliability of 75% for all the subjects. From this we concluded that it is possible to observe the system states and thus predict the correct answer using the EEG signals as inputs.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
