This paper presents the variation of functional interdependency of electroencephalograph (EEG) signals from different cortical areas during a 36 hour long sleep deprived experiment using phase synchronization. Weighted undirected network structures have been constructed based on the magnitude of Phase Synchronization at various levels of wavelet decomposition. Various network parameters have been...
Visual fatigue is defined as weariness or discomfort localized in either the head or the eye after a visually demanding task. The etiology of visual fatigue is insufficiently understood in vision research. This study investigates the correlation between changes of near-dissociated phoria versus vergence dynamics defined as the ratio of convergence average peak velocity to divergence average peak velocity...
In an overnight driving simulation study three commercially available devices of fatigue monitoring technologies (FMT) were applied to test their accuracy. 16 volunteers performed driving tasks during eight sessions (40 min each) separated by 15 minutes breaks. The main output variable of FMT devices, which is the percentage of eye closure (PERCLOS), the driving performance (standard deviation of...
The patency of the upper airway is dependent on the sustained activity of upper airway muscles, in particular the genioglossus (GG) muscles which act to protrude the tongue. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common and serious disorder in which this mechanism fails, resulting in frequent collapse of the airway during sleep. The properties of the upper airway muscles are therefore of interest...
