Title: State-Space Modeling of Dynamics Processes in Neuroscience

Abstract:

Dynamic processes are the rule rather than the exception in all areas of neuroscience. For this reason, many of the data analysis challenges in neuroscience lend themselves readily to formulation and study using the state-space paradigm. In this lecture I will discuss the state-space paradigm using both point process and continuous valued observation models in the study of three problems in basic and clinical neuroscience research. These are: characterizing how the rodent hippocampus maintains a dynamic representation of the animal's position in its environment; real-time tracking of brain states of patients receiving general anesthesia; and realtime assessment and control of medical coma. This research has led to the development of statespace methods for point process observation models and to state-space multitaper methods for time-frequency analysis of non-stationery time series.
