Abstract
BACKGROUND Spike trains are series of interspike intervals in a specific order that can be characterized by their probability distributions and order in time which refer to the concepts of rate and spike timing features. Periodic structure in the spike train can be reflected in oscillatory activities. Thus, there is a direct link between oscillator activities and the spike train. The proposed methods are to investigate the dependency of emerging oscillatory activities to the rate and the spike timing features. METHOD First, the circular statistics methods were compared to Fast Fourier Transform for best estimation of spectra. Second, two statistical tests were introduced to help make decisions regarding the dependency of spectrum, or individual frequencies, onto rate and spike timing. Third, the methodology is applied to in-vivo recordings of basal ganglia neurons in mouse, primate, and human. Finally, this novel framework is shown to allow the investigation of subsets of spikes contributing to individual oscillators. RESULTS Use of circular statistical methods, in comparison to FFT, minimizes spectral leakage. Using virtual spike trains, the Rate versus Timing Dependency Spectrum Test (or RTDs-Test) permits identifying spectral spike trains solely dependent on the rate feature from those that are also dependent on the spike timing feature. Similarly, the Rate versus Timing Dependency Frequency Test (or RTDf-Test), allows to identify individual oscillators with partial dependency on spike timing. Dependency on spike timing was found for all in-vivo recordings but only in few frequencies. The mapping in frequency and time of dependencies showed a dynamical process that may be organizing the basal ganglia function. CONCLUSIONS The methodology may improve our understanding of the emergence of oscillatory activities and, possibly, the relation between oscillatory activities and circuitry functions.

Abstract
The dynamic profile of brain function has received much attention in recent years and is also a focus in the study of epilepsy. The present study aims to integrate the dynamics of temporal and spatial characteristics to provide comprehensive and novel understanding of epileptic dynamics. Resting state fMRI data were collected from eighty-three patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) and 87 healthy controls (HC). Specifically, we explored the temporal and spatial variation of functional connectivity density (tvFCD and svFCD) in the whole brain. Using a sliding-window approach, for a given region, the standard variation of the FCD series was calculated as the tvFCD and the variation of voxel-wise spatial distribution was calculated as the svFCD. We found primary, high-level, and sub-cortical networks demonstrated distinct tvFCD and svFCD patterns in HC. In general, the high-level networks showed the highest variation, the subcortical and primary networks showed moderate variation, and the limbic system showed the lowest variation. Relative to HC, the patients with IGE showed weaken temporal and enhanced spatial variation in the default mode network and weaken temporospatial variation in the subcortical network. Besides, enhanced temporospatial variation in sensorimotor and high-level networks was also observed in patients. The hyper-synchronization of specific brain networks was inferred to be associated with the phenomenon responsible for the intrinsic propensity of generation and propagation of epileptic activities. The disrupted dynamic characteristics of sensorimotor and high-level networks might potentially contribute to the driven motion and cognition phenotypes in patients. In all, presently provided evidence from the temporospatial variation of functional interaction shed light on the dynamics underlying neuropathological profiles of epilepsy.

Local field potential dynamics in the primate cortex in relation to parkinsonism reveled by machine learning: A comparison between the primary motor cortex and the supplementary area. Neurosci Res 2020; 156:66-79. [PMID: 31991205 DOI: 10.1016/j.neures.2020.01.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2019] [Revised: 11/09/2019] [Accepted: 11/29/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
The present study compares the cortical local field potentials (LFPs) in the primary motor cortex (M1) and the supplementary motor area (SMA) of non-human primates rendered Parkinsonian with administration of dopaminergic neurotoxin, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine. The dynamic of the LFPs was investigated under several mathematical frameworks and machine learning was used to discriminate the recordings based on these features between healthy, parkinsonian with off-medication and parkinsonian with on-medication states. The importance of each feature in the discrimination process was further investigated. The dynamic of the LFPs in M1 and SMA was affected regarding its variability (time domain analysis), oscillatory activities (frequency domain analysis) and complex patterns (non-linear domain analysis). Machine learning algorithms achieved accuracy near 0.90 for comparisons between conditions. The TreeBagger algorithm provided best accuracy. The relative importance of these features differed with the cortical location, condition and treatment. Overall, the most important features included beta oscillation, fractal dimension, gamma oscillation, entropy and asymmetry of amplitude fluctuation. The importance of features in discriminating between normal and pathological states, and on- or off-medication states depends on the pair-comparison and it is region-specific. These findings are discussed regarding the refinement of current models for movement disorders and the development of on-demand therapies.
