Evidence of self-organization in brain electrical activity using wavelet-based informational tools
In the present work, we show that appropriate information-theory tools based on the wavelet transform (relative wavelet energy; normalized total wavelet entropy, H; generalized wavelet complexity, CW), when applied to tonic-clonic epileptic EEC data, provide one with valuable insights into the dynam...

In the present work, we show that appropriate information-theory tools based on the wavelet transform (relative wavelet energy; normalized total wavelet entropy, H; generalized wavelet complexity, CW), when applied to tonic-clonic epileptic EEC data, provide one with valuable insights into the dynamics of neural activity.

If the electromyographic activity is excluded the difference between the ictal and pre-ictal mean entropic values (ΔH = 〈H(ictal)〉 - 〈H(pre-ictal)〉) is negative in 95% of the cases (p< 0.0001), and the mean complexity variation (ΔCW = 〈C W (ictal)〉 - 〈CW (pre-ictal)〉) is positive in 85% of the cases (p = 0.0002).
