Phase Resetting in Medicine and Biology: Stochastic Modelling and Data Analysis (Springer Series in Synergetics)

Phase Resetting in Medicine and Biology: Stochastic Modelling and Data Analysis (Springer Series in Synergetics)

by PeterA.Tass (Author)

Synopsis

This book presents a new theoretical approach to phase resetting and stimulation-induced synchronization and desynchronization in a population of oscillators. The author uses stochastic methods from statistical mechanics and applies his theory to models of practical importance in physiology and neuroscience. The book is accessible to readers not familiar with the mathematical formalism. The author also proposes improvements to stimulation techniques as used by neurologists and neurosurgeons in the context of Parkinson's disease and MEG/EEG data analysis.

Media Reviews
From the reviews
This book is devoted to the intriguing problem of the complex dynamics of coupled oscillators in neuroactivity. The book is not for the unprepared reader - the theory of Winfree on phase resetting and Haken's synergetics theory form the foundations of this monograph. (ZENTRALBLATT MATH)
