Examination of Statistical Instability of Electroencephalograms

Abstract

The study examined stochastic stability of EEG samples recorded in succession from the same healthy volunteer at unchanged state. The absence of statistical repetitions not only for EEG samples, but also for the corresponding spectral densities was proven. A method to calculate the pairwise comparison matrices of ECG samples and quasi-attractors was proposed. The diagnostic effectiveness of these calculations was demonstrated during photostimulation, when successive EEG samples chaotically changed under overall homeostatic conditions.
