Faded Critical Dynamics in Adult Moyamoya Disease Revealed by EEG and fMRI

Figure 1

Definition and evaluation of events and avalanches in the three groups. (a) An example showing a 60-second span of EEG amplitude data from a subject and the corresponding mean frequency. (b) Segmenting data with four avalanches as examples. A cascade was defined as continuous events as time bins end with no-event time bins. The number of events in the avalanche defined the avalanche size. The number of time bins was defined as the duration. The avalanche sizes in the figure were 3, 8, 9, and 5; the durations were 2, 2, 3, and 1, respectively. (c–e) The probability density distribution (PDF) and cumulative probability density distribution (CDF) of the avalanche size () and duration () in the EC state for each of the three groups.
