A set of composite, non-redundant EEG measures of NREM sleep based on the power law scaling of the Fourier spectrum

Abstract Features of sleep were shown to reflect aging, typical sex differences and cognitive abilities of humans. However, these measures are characterized by redundancy and arbitrariness. Our present approach relies on the assumptions that the spontaneous human brain activity as reflected by the s...
