First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of analyzing neurophysiological data recorded from a brain of a subject, the method comprising:
- recording the neurophysiological data by a plurality of measuring devices respectively placed at a plurality of different locations on the scalp of the subject,operating a data processor for;
identifying activity-related features in the data;
parceling the data according to said activity-related features to define a plurality of capsules, each representing a spatiotemporal activity region in the brain and corresponding to an extremum of the data and a spatiotemporal neighborhood defined as a spatial region in which said extremum is located and a time-interval during which said extremum occurs, wherein a size of said neighborhood is determined based on a property of said extremum;
storing said capsules in a memory;
comparing at least some of said defined capsules to at least one reference capsule;
estimating a brain function of the subject based on said comparison and;
generating on a display an output indicative of said brain function.

Abstract
A method of analyzing neurophysiological data recorded from a subject is disclosed. The method comprises identifying activity-related features in the data, and parceling the data according to the activity-related features to define a plurality of capsules, each representing a spatiotemporal activity region in the brain. The method further comprises comparing at least some of the defined capsules to at least one reference capsule, and estimating a brain function of the subject based on the comparison.
