 Neural oscillation

Rhythmic variation in neural signals. Frequency-band averages can obscure brief events; the timing and duration of bursts can matter independently of mean spectral power.

Neural oscillation refers to rhythmic or repetitive patterns of neural activity in the brain. These oscillations can be observed in various forms across different frequencies and are associated with a variety of cognitive and behavioral processes. They are typically measured using electroencephalography (EEG) and can be classified into several frequency bands: 1. **Delta Waves (0.5-4 Hz)**: Slow oscillations often associated with deep sleep and restorative processes.
