The EEG data indicate stochastic nonlinearity

Journal/Book: Behav Brain Sci. 1996; 19: 40 West 20TH Street, New York, NY 10011-4211. Cambridge Univ Press. 308.

Abstract: Wright & Liley contrast their theory that the global dynamics of the EEG are linear with that of Freeman, who hypothesizes an EEG governed by (nonlinear) deterministic-chaotic dynamics. A ''call for further discussion'' on the part of the authors is made as to how either theory fits with experimental findings indicating that EEG dynamics are nonlinear but stochastic.
