| Abstract | Poincare plots are commonly used to study the nonlinear behavior of physiological signals. In the time series analysis, the width of Poincare plots can be considered as a criterion of short-term variability in signals. The hypothesis that Poincare plot indexes of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals can detect dynamic changes during meditation was examined in sixteen healthy women. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different lags on the width of the Poincare plots in EEG signals during meditation. Poincare plots with six different lag (1-6) were constructed for two sets of data and the width of the Poincare plot for each lag was calculated. The results show that during meditation the width of Poincare plots tended to increase as the lag increased. The Poincare plot is a quantitative visual tool which can be applied to the analysis of EEG data gathered over relatively short time periods. The simplicity of the width of Poincare plot calculation and its' adaptation to the chaotic nature of the biological signals could be useful to evaluate EEG signals during meditation. |
