  • 인간의 집중도 변화를 평가하기 위하여 피험자에게 암산과제를 부가하고 뇌파신호를 전두엽(Fpl, Fp2)으로부터 측정하였다. alpha band의 최대 peak 주파수 변화를 compressed spectral array를 사용하여 관찰하고 theta(3.5-7 Hz), alpha(7.5-13.0 Hz), beta(13.5-20 Hz) band 전력을 정규화하여 분포를 구했다. 평가결과, 집중도가 높아짐에 따라 alpha band의 최대 peak 주파수는 낮은 주파수 대에서 높은 주파수대로 이동하고, slow alpha band의 전력은 감소, fast alpha band의 전력은 증가하였다. 또한 뇌파신호의 각 band 전력의 분포는 theta band는 증가, alpha band는 감소하였다.

  • Electroencephalogram(EEG) would be the most objective psychophysiological research technique on human errors though few research has been taken yet. This study aimed to get characteristics of human error while committing simple Odd-Ball tasks by utilizing the power spectrum technique of EEG data. Each experiment was composed of 3 tasks with different rules, and 8 young undergraduate students participated in this study as paid subjects. The result showed in the affirmative that subject and the interaction of subject and task factors were statistically significant on variation of $\alpha$ band power $P_{\alpha/(\alpha+\beta+\theta)}$ and $\beta$ band power $P_{\beta/(\alpha+\beta+\theta)}$, and that the former increasing in backward direction to Pz reflects compatibility whereas the latter increasing in forward direction to Fz reflects familiarity. Therefore it was coucluded that, since task 2 carried out in the present research requiring decoding process would be more difficult to human beings than the task merely requiring psychological recall process, task 1 and task 3 were classified into a homogenious group excluding task 2, and the ratio $\alpha$ band power to $\beta$ band power indicated enormous increase of $\alpha$ band power relative to $\beta$ band power in the cases of contra-lateral errors, especially in task 2.

  • In this paper the feature of background EEG is extracted by LS Prony Method for the analysis of background EEG in the time domain. From the experimential results the alpha band amplitude is the largest among bands and beta band amplitude is larger than that of the delta band and theta band. The sustained time for the alpha band, the beta band, the delta band and the theta band is 2.3461(sec), 1.8980(sec), 0.3120(sec), 0.2930(sec) respectively. Consequently the alpha band and the beta band are maintained in the whole, segment. The delta band, the theta band are existed intermittently in the segment.

  • In this paper the feature of background EEG is extracted by LS Prony Method for the analysis of background EEG in the time domain. Autocorrelation leg estimates are not required with the LS Prony method. The Prony method is required any the solution of two serfs of simultaneous linear equation and a polynominal rooting. That the optimal order of this model is the 6-th order is determined by using Akaike' s Information Criterial test. From the experimential results the alpha band amplitude is the largest among alpha band beta band theta band delta band and beta band amplitude is larger than that of the delta band and theta band. The sustained time for the alph a band, the beta band, the delta band and the theta band is 2, 3461 (sec), 0.6490(sec), 0.3120(sec), 0.7046(sec) respectively. Consequenty the alpha band is maintained in the whole subjects, the beta band, the delta band, the theta band are existed intermittently in each subjects.

  • In order to extract only the alpha activity related signals from EEG recordings, we have applied Constrained Independent Component Analysis (cICA), a new extension of ICA in which some a priori knowledge of the alpha activity is utilized to extract only desired components. Its extraction (or filtering) performance has been compared to that of the conventional band-pass filtering via the scalp alpha power maps and cortical source maps of the alpha activity. Our results demonstrate that the alpha power maps and cortical source maps from the cICA-extracted alpha signals reveal more focalized alpha generating regions of the brain than those from the band-pass filtered alpha EEG signals. Furthermore they match more closely the activated regions of the brain mapped using fMRI, validating our results. We believe that the cICA-based filtering approach of EEG signals is a more effective means of extracting a specific brain activity reflected in EEG signals that will result in more accurate source localization or imaging maps.

  • Objectives Sensory gating dysfunctions in patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have been investigated through two similar methods ; P50 suppression and prepulse inhibition paradigms. However, recent studies have demonstrated that the two measures are not correlated but rather constitute as distinct neural processes. Recent studies adopting spectral frequency analysis suggest that P50 suppression reflects the interaction between gamma and other frequency bands. The aim of the present study is to investigate which frequency component shows more significant interaction with gamma band. Methods A total of 108 mood disorder patients and 36 normal subjects were included in the study. The P50 responses to conditioning and test stimuli with an intra-pair interval of 500 msec were measured in the study population. According to P50 ratio (amplitude to the test stimulus/amplitude to the conditioning stimulus), the subjects with P50 ratio less than 0.2 were defined as suppressed group (SG) ; non-suppressed group (NSG) consisted of P50 ratio more than 0.8. Thirty-five and 25 subjects were included in SG and NSG, respectively. Point-to-point correlation coefficients (PPCCs) of both groups were calculated between two time-windows : the first window (S1) was defined as the time-window of one hundred millisecond after the conditioning auditory stimulus and the second window (S2) was defined as the time-window of 100 msec after the test auditory stimulus. Spectral frequency analysis was performed to investigate which frequency band results in the difference of PPCC between SG and NSG. Results Significant reduction of PPCC between S1 and S2 was observed in the SG (Pearson's r = 0.24), compared to PPCC of the NSG (r = 0.58, p < 0.05). In spectral frequency analysis, gamma band showed "phase-reset" and similar responses after the two auditory stimuli in suppressed and non-suppressed group. However in the case of alpha band, comparison showed significantly low PPCC in SG (r = -0.14) compared to NSG (r = 0.36, p < 0.05). This may be reflecting "phase-out" of alpha band against gamma band at approximately 50 msecs after the test stimulus in the SG. Conclusions Our study suggests that normal P50 suppression is caused by phase-out of alpha band against gamma band after the second auditory stimulus. Thus it is demonstrated that normal sensory gating process is constituted with attenuated alpha power, superimposed on consistent gamma response. Implications of preserved gamma and decreased alpha band in sensory gating function are discussed.

  • 양이온 색소인 thionin(Th)과 음이온 계면활성제인 sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) 사이의 상호작용을 흡수 spectra로 고찰하였다. 임계미셀농도(critical micelle concentration, CMC)보다 훨씬 낮은 premicellar 영역(S/D=10, 80 및 160)에서 온도가 증가함에 따라 몰 흡광계수비가 증가하거나 감소함을 볼 수 있으며, S/D=160에서 Th-SDS계의 다분자 회합체가 생성하는 가장 안정한 온도 범위는 $60^{\circ}C$ 이하임을 알 수 있었다. 한편 Th-SDS계에 첨가한 무기염 및 유기용매의 농도가 증가함에 따라 ${\gamma}$-band와 J-band는 감소하나 ${\alpha}$-band는 오히려 증가하는 경향이 나타났다. 이들의 ${\alpha}$-band의 증가 순서는 무기염의 경우 $Cl^-$>$ClO{_4}{^-}$>$SO{_4}{^{2-}}$>$NO{_3}{^-}$로 나타나며, 유기용매인 경우는 2-propanol>ethanol>methanol>ethylene glycol로 나타남을 알 수 있다.
