FDTest method measures memory in neural models
The FDTest method identified that future brain activity depends on past information, confirmed by deviations from the generalized Fluctuation–dissipation theorem. The analysis covered whole-brain models during wakefulness and deep sleep.
- Field
- the brain and neuroscience
- What they did
- Researchers developed the FDTest method to assess memory in the brain based on violations of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem and applied it to brain models matching human MRI data.
- Why it matters
- This allows checking if future brain activity depends on past information, helping to understand the balance between local and distributed information processing in different states of consciousness.
