Abstract

Neuronal avalanches recorded in the awake and sleeping monkey do not show a power law but can be reproduced by a self-organized critical model

  • We wanted to know whether a state change from awake to asleep could be modeled by changing the connectivity of a Self-organized critical (SOC) model without leaving the critical state

  • We simulated a SOC model [1] and calculated f(s) and bp obtained from sampling only the activity of a set of 4 × 4 sites, representing the electrode positions in the cortex. We compared these results with results obtained from multielectrode recordings of local field potentials (LFP) in the cortex of behaving monkeys
