Long-range temporal autocorrelations and 1/f power spectra comprise the temporal structure of neural activity visible in signal recorded with various experimental techniques: magneto- and electroencephalography (MEG, EEG), electrocorticography (ECoG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Such long-rage correlation appear in behavioural data as well, and were shown to be associated with the brain autocorrelations mentioned above. Additionally, occurrence of spatial long-range correlations and our ability to reconstruct patterns of spontaneous co-activations of cortical brain regions (resting-state networks) with models poised at phase transition suggest that one could describe brain in terms of a critical system.

During the seminar, I shall present examples of analysing neurophysiological, motor, and behavioural signals, which serve designing objective diagnostic measures, as well as artificial neural networks that are biologically inspired.
