Abstract:
1. A method for establishing a knowledge base of neuropsychological flow patterns, the method comprising: obtaining signals from multiple subjects from one or more research groups for a particular behavioral process, wherein said signals comprise EEG signals; determining source localization participating in said particular behavioral process for said research groups according to said signals; identifying sets of patterns of brain activity for said behavioral process for said research groups using a counting method or method of calculating statistical significances of pairs; neuropsychologically analyzing said source localization and said identified patterns for each of said research groups, said neuropsychologically analyzing comprising: identifying a plurality of possible pathways for said identified sets of patterns; ranking said possible pathways based on likelihood for said particular behavioral process; and reducing the number of ranked possible pathways based on one or more additional constraints; creating a set of flow patterns from said neuropsychologically analyzed sources and patterns, for each of said research groups; and creating a knowledge base of said flow patterns, wherein said knowledge base is then used as a constraint for said reducing.
