Abstract

It is believed that effective connectivity and optimal network structure are essential for proper information processing in the brain. Indeed, functional abnormalities of the brain are found to be associated with pathological changes in connectivity and network structures. The aim of the present study was to explore the interictal network properties of EEG signals from temporal lobe structures in the context of fronto-temporal lobe epilepsy.
