Order/disorder in brain electrical activity
The processing of information by the brain is reflected in dynamical changes of the electrical activity in time, frequency, and space. Therefore, the concomitant studies require methods capable of describing the quantitative variation of the signal in both time and frequency. Here we present a quant...

The processing of information by the brain is reflected in dynamical changes of the electrical activity in time, frequency, and space.
