Detecting moments of distraction during meditation practice based on changes in the EEG signal

Electroencephalography (EEG) enables online monitoring brain activity, which can be used for neurofeedback. One of the growing applications of EEG neurofeedback is to facilitate meditation practice. Specifically, EEG neurofeedback can be used to alert participants whenever they get distracted during meditation practice based on changes in their...

A Scalable Distributed Dynamical Systems Approach to Learn the Strongly Connected Components and Diameter of Networks

Finding strongly connected components (SCCs) and the diameter of a directed network play a key role in a variety of machine learning and control theory problems. In this article, we provide for the first time a scalable distributed solution for these two problems by leveraging dynamical consensus-like protocols to find the SCCs. The proposed...
