Zusammenfassung: | Mesoscopic brain states are still to little known to have acquired an accepted terminology, and the same condition applies to the name of their carrier waves. The names such as deterministic chaos, terminal chaos, chemical reaction-diffusion patterns, and turbulence are not applicable. For the time being, the author suggests that it can be called 'stochastic chaos', because it arises from and feeds on the randomized activity of myriads of neurons, and it provides the basis for self-organization. |
