Designing EEG Experiments for Studying the Brain: Design Code and Example Datasets details the design of various brain experiments using electroencephalogram (EEG). Providing guidelines for designing an EEG experiment, it is primarily for researchers who want to venture into this field by designing their own experiments as well as those who are excited about neuroscience and want to explore various applications related to the brain. The first chapter describes how to design an EEG experiment and details the various parameters that should be considered for success, while remaining chapters provide experiment design for a number of neurological applications, both clinical and behavioral. As each chapter is accompanied with experiment design codes and example datasets, those interested can quickly design their own experiments or use the current design for their own purposes. Helpful appendices provide various forms for one's experiment including recruitment forms, feedback forms, ethics forms, and recommendations for related hardware equipment and software for data acquisition, processing, and analysis. - Written to assist neuroscientists in experiment designs using EEG - Presents a step-by-step approach to designing both clinical and behavioral EEG experiments - Includes experiment design codes and example datasets - Provides inclusion and exclusion criteria to help correctly identify experiment subjects and the minimum number of samples - Includes appendices that provide recruitment forms, ethics forms, and various subjective tests associated with each of the chapters

A candid and practical guide to the new frontier of brain customization Dozens of books promise to improve your brain function with a gimmick. Lifestyle changes, microdosing, electromagnetic stimulation: just one weird trick can lightly alter or dramatically deconstruct your brain. In truth, there is no one-size-fits-all shortcut to the ideal mind. Instead, the way to understand cognitive enhancement is to think like a tailor: measure how you need your brain to change and then find a plan that suits it. In The Tailored Brain, Emily Willingham explores the promises and limitations of well-known and emerging methods of brain customization, including prescription drugs, diets, and new research on the power of your “social brain.” Packed with real-life examples and checklists that allow readers to better understand their cognitive needs, this is the definitive guide to a better brain.

1.1 Motivation Analysis of non-stationary and non-linear nature of signal data is the prime talk in signal processing domain today. On employing biomedical equipments huge volume of physiological data is acquired for analysis and diagnostic purposes. Inferring certain decisions from these signals by manual observation is quite tedious due to artefacts and its time series nature. As large volume of data involved in biomedical signal processing, adopting suitable computational methods is important for analysis. Data Science provides space for processing these signals through machine learning approaches. Many more biomedical signal processing implementations are in place using machine learning methods. This is the inspiration in adopting machine learning approach for analysing EEG signal data for epileptic seizure detection.

How will artificial intelligence (AI), reshape work, commerce, relationships, and reality? As AI shatters barriers and ascends to CEO positions, rewriting the rules of our world, it renders millions who were previously considered impervious, vulnerable to its effects. When a tranquil Canadian evening takes a sinister turn, an elderly couple becomes ensnared in a cruel deception that exposes the unsettling complexities of AI. Surpassing the scope of science fiction and our brain’s ability to comprehend it, AI is on a path to alter society's foundation, adeptly replacing jobs and instigating a major shift in social roles—ushering a new economic era. Yet, few are prepared to adapt. "The Wolf is at the Door" invites you on a compelling journey, unveiling this dramatic transformation and providing crucial insights for entrepreneurs and workers alike. Unraveling the boundless possibilities and problems borne by the digital frontier, this book breaks down the 10 most pressing threats we face and 10 vital rules to thrive in an AI-driven world. As you explore the latest jaw-dropping developments, you will travel from the bustling center of Manhattan to the tranquil farmlands of Australia, bearing witness to enduring echoes of the past—from the Great Depression to the Industrial Revolution—on a quest to answer the defining questions of our generation. However, caution is necessary. When you meet the wolf, will he morph into an accomplice of immeasurable benefits, or surface as an adversary taking over your job or venture? It's up to you to decide.
