Stimulus placement system using subject neuro-response measurements

An example system disclosed herein includes an analyzer to analyze first neuro-response data and second neuro-response data and a selector to identify a candidate location in source material for introduction of an advertisement or entertainment based on first neuro-response data and second neuro-response data. The analyzer is to detect a first pattern of oscillation in a first frequency band of third neuro-response data; detect a second pattern of oscillation in a second frequency band of the third neuro-response data; determine a degree of phase synchrony or amplitude synchrony based on the first pattern of oscillation and the second pattern of oscillation; and determine an effectiveness of the advertisement or entertainment based on the degree of phase synchrony or amplitude synchrony.

Enhancing deep sleep based on information from frontal brain activity monitoring sensors

Typically, high NREM stage N3 sleep detection accuracy is achieved using a frontal electrode referenced to an electrode at a distant location on the head (e.g., the mastoid, or the earlobe). For comfort and design considerations it is more convenient to have active and reference electrodes closely positioned on the frontal region of the head. This configuration, however, significantly attenuates the signal, which degrades sleep stage detection (e.g., N3) performance. The present disclosure describes a deep neural network (DNN) based solution developed to detect sleep using frontal electrodes only. N3 detection is enhanced through post-processing of the soft DNN outputs. Detection of slow-waves and sleep micro-arousals is accomplished using frequency domain thresholds. Volume modulation uses a high-frequency/low-frequency spectral ratio extracted from the frontal signal.
