Epilepsy is a neural disorder with the hallmark of recurrent seizures. To characterize the epileptic brain electrical activities, we employed the cross modulation of instantaneous amplitudes and frequencies to separate synchronous and anti-synchronous modulation. Amplitude-amplitude, amplitude-frequency and frequency-frequency cross modulation were adopted to analyse the difference between EEG signal of epileptic patients and that of normal people. By comparing the observed patterns with two groups of EEG signals we demonstrate that the cross-modulation exponentials at the temporal region and the occipital region of right hemisphere are significant different.

Transfer entropy (TE) has been broadly used in the field of neurosciences. In this paper, the partial information decomposition algorithm is employed to decompose multivariate TE into synergistic, redundant and unique parts. In this work, the synergistic part is believed as more suitable as the computation method. We recorded the magnetoencephalogram (MEG) data of 6 subjects with depression and 13 normal subjects under different emotional stimulations, and studied the coupling between multiple symmetric channels in the frontal area in the brain of subject. The experimental results show that under different emotional stimulations, normal people present significant difference from the depression patients, especially in the right frontal area. Furthermore, under negative emotional stimulation, the difference in synergistic value between normal people and depression patients is smaller. The synergistic value of depression patients has become bigger, which indicates that the brain complexity of depression patients has grown, and their brain activities have increased.

In this paper, we use a new algorithm, the IRC algorithm, to improve the Kendall algorithm. Research on complex networks has gradually deepened into all areas of social science. The study of brain networks has become a hot topic in the study of brain function. The method of wavelet filtering is used to filter the EEG data to obtain the required α-band (8-16 Hz). Using the improved IRC algorithm, the brain functional network is constructed based on the EEG data, and the related characteristics of the brain network constructed are analyzed. The experimental results show that the method is suitable for distinguishing the network degree indicators of epilepsy and normal brain tissue, and further deepening the study of the neurokinetic behavior of the brain.

The advancement of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has led to the emergence of various health and emotion care services, e.g., health monitoring. To cater to increasing computational requirements of IoMT services, Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) has emerged as an indispensable technology in smart health. Benefiting from the cost-effectiveness of deployment, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with MEC servers in Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) have emerged as a promising solution for providing smart health services in proximity to medical devices (MDs). However, the escalating number of MDs and the limited availability of communication resources of UAVs give rise to a significant increase in transmission latency. Moreover, due to the limited communication range of UAVs, the geographically-distributed MDs lead to workload imbalance of UAVs, which deteriorates the service response delay. To this end, this paper proposes a UAV-enabled Distributed computation Offloading and Power control method with Multi-Agent, named DOPMA, for NOMA-based IoMT environment. Specifically, this paper introduces computation and transmission queue models to analyze the dynamic characteristics of task execution latency and energy consumption. Moreover, a credit assignment scheme-based reward function is designed considering both system-level rewards and rewards tailored to each MD, and an improved multi-agent deep deterministic policy gradient algorithm is developed to derive offloading and power control decisions independently. Extensive simulations demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms existing schemes, achieving \(7.1\%\) reduction in energy consumption and \(16\%\) decrease in average delay.
