Functional MRI (fMRI) is an indirect reflection of neuronal activity. Using generative biophysical model of fMRI data such as Dynamic Causal Model (DCM), the underlying neuronal activities of different brain areas and their causal interactions (i.e.

The paper outlines the concepts and design of an upcoming stand-alone solar photovoltaic system to supply the energy needs of a new proposed business complex. The purpose of this study is to develop a prediction method for the use of solar energy for commercial purposes. Firstly, the annual energy demand for the illumination and utilities in a business complex is calculated.

Color perception is a major guiding factor in the evolutionary process of human civilization, but most of the neurological background of the same are yet unknown. This work attempts to address this area with an EEG based neuro-cognitive study on response of brain to different color stimuli. With respect to a Grey baseline seven colors of the VIBGYOR were shown to 16 participants with normal color vision and corresponding EEG signals from different lobes (Frontal, Occipital & Parietal) were recorded.

Can we hear the sound of our brain? Is there any technique which can enable us to hear the neuro-electrical impulses originating from the different lobes of brain? The answer to all these questions is YES. In this paper we present a novel method with which we can sonify the electroencephalogram (EEG) data recorded in "control" state as well as under the influence of a simple acoustical stimuli-a tanpura drone. The tanpura has a very simple construction yet the tanpura drone exhibits very complex acoustic features, which is generally used for creation of an ambience during a musical performance.
