Traveling waves appear and disappear in unison with produced speech

Joaquin Rapela

In Rapela (2016) we reported traveling waves (TWs) on electrocorticographic (ECoG) recordings from an epileptic subject over speech processing brain regions, while the subject rhyt…

Rhythmic production of consonant-vowel syllables synchronizes traveling waves in speech-processing brain regions

Joaquin Rapela

Nature is abundant in oscillatory activity, with oscillators that have the remarkable ability of synchronizing to external events. Using electrocorticographic (ECoG) recordings fro…

A new foreperiod effect on single-trial phase coherence. Part I: existence and relevance

Joaquin Rapela, Marissa Westerfield, Jeanne Townsend +1

Expecting events in time leads to more efficient behavior. A remarkable early finding in the study of temporal expectancy is the foreperiod effect on reaction times; i.e., the infl…

Entrainment of traveling waves to rhythmic motor acts

Joaquin Rapela

We hypothesized that rhythmic motor acts entrain neural oscillations in speech production brain regions. We tested this hypothesis in an experiment where a subject produced consona…

Modeling neural activity at the ensemble level

Joaquin Rapela, Mark Kostuk, Peter F. Rowat +3

Here we demonstrate that the activity of neural ensembles can be quantitatively modeled. We first show that an ensemble dynamical model (EDM) accurately approximates the distributi…
