The prime objective of the study is to investigate the effect (effects in the sense of an increase in psychological well-being and decrease in stress & mood disturbances) of specific relaxation technique popularly named as Kriya Yoga (KY) meditation on long-term and short-term practitioners. For comparison, the EEG data for non-meditators or control group has also been recorded. To the best of...
This paper presents a case study to detect the state of consciousness in meditation research. Specifically in this study, 23 long-term Kriya Yoga (KY) practitioners have participated. The microstate is one of the ways to detect Spatiotemporal activity of brain dynamics in specific cognitive traits using Global Field Potential (GFP). This investigation shows the recognition of short periods...
Due to the presence of nonlinearity and volume conduction in electroencephalography (EEG), sometimes it's challenging to find out the actual brain network from neurodynamical alteration. In this paper, two well-known time-frequency brain connectivity measures, namely partial directed coherence (PDC) and directed transfer function (DTF), have been applied to evaluate the performance analysis of...
The neural dynamics and its interpretation is a bit challenging task in the measure of synchronization. In this paper, in order to infer the neural mechanism in a different cognitive activity like meditation was observed through EEG signal and was investigated using Phase Synchrony (PS) estimation method. EEG signals are highly oscillating in nature. Its interpretation, on generalized phase...
