  7. Phase Reduction Stable Limit Cycle Perturbation ISOCHRON Assume 1st order Taylor expansion

  8. Phase Reduction From a high-dimensional differential eq. To a one dimensional diff eq. Phase Response Curve Perturbation function

  9. Hippocampus Septum Example: Theta rhythm Denham et al. 2000: Wilson-Cowan style model

  10. Four-dimensional state space

  11. Now assume that changes sufficiently slowly that 2nd term can be replaced by a time average over a single cycle This is the ‘Phase Interaction Function’

  12. Now assume that changes sufficiently slowly that 2nd term can be replaced by a time average over a single cycle Now 2nd term is only a function of phase difference This is the ‘Phase Interaction Function’

  13. Multiple Oscillators

  14. Overview • Phase Reduction • Choice of Phase Interaction Function (PIF) • DCM for Phase Coupling • Ex 1: Finger movement • Ex 2: MEG Theta visual working memory • Conclusions

  15. Choice of g We use a Fourier series approximation for the PIF This choice is justified on the following grounds …

  16. Phase Response Curves, • Experimentally – using perturbation method

  17. Leaky Integrate and Fire Neuron Type II (pos and neg) Z is strictly positive: Type I response

  18. Hopf Bifurcation Stable Limit Cycle Stable Equilibrium Point

  19. For a Hopf bifurcation (Erm & Kopell…)

  20. Septo-Hippocampal theta rhythm

  21. Hippocampus Septum Septo-Hippocampal Theta rhythm Theta from Hopf bifurcation A B A B

  22. PIFs Even if you have a type I PRC, if the perturbation is non-instantaneous, then you’ll end up with a type II first order Fourier PIF (Van Vreeswijk, alpha function synapses) … so that’s our justification. … and then there are delays ….

  24. Where k denotes the kth trial. uq denotes qth modulatory input, a between trial effect has prior mean zero, dev=3fb is the frequency in the ith region (prior mean f0, dev = 3fb) has prior mean zero, dev=3fb DCM for Phase Coupling Model

  31. MEG data from Visual Working Memory 1) No retention (control condition): Discrimination task + 2) Retention I (Easy condition): Non-configural task + 3) Retention II (Hard condition): Configural task + 5 sec 3 sec 5 sec 1 sec MAINTENANCE PROBE ENCODING

  32. Questions for DCM • Duzel et al. find different patterns of theta-coupling in the delay period • dependent on task. • Pick 3 regions based on [previous source reconstruction] • 1. Right Hipp [27,-18,-27] mm • 2. Right Occ [10,-100,0] mm • 3. Right IFG [39,28,-12] mm • Fit models to control data (10 trials) and hard data (10 trials). Each trial • comprises first 1sec of delay period. • Find out if structure of network dynamics is Master-Slave (MS) or • (Partial/Total) Mutual Entrainment (ME) • Which connections are modulated by (hard) memory task ?

  33. Data Preprocessing • Source reconstruct activity in areas of interest (with fewer sources than • sensors and known location, then pinv will do; Baillet 01) • Bandpass data into frequency range of interest • Hilbert transform data to obtain instantaneous phase • Use multiple trials per experimental condition

  39. Conclusions • Model is multivariate extension of bivariate work by Rosenblum & Pikovsky • (EMA approach) • On bivariate data DCM-P is more accurate than EMA • Additionally, DCM-P allows for inferences about master-slave versus • mutual entrainment mechanisms in multivariate (N>2) oscillator networks • Delay estimates from DTI • Use of phase response curves derived from specific neuronal models • using XPP or MATCONT • Stochastic dynamics (natural decoupling) … see Kuramoto 84, Brown 04 • For within-trial inputs causing phase-sync and desync (Tass model)
