Takens versus multichannel reconstruction in EEG correlation exponent estimates

Abstract The Takens reconstruction and the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm are shown to give biased and unsatisfactory estimates of the correlation exponent of EEG registered in the standard state (relaxation, closed eyes). Multichannel reconstruction and modified GPA are recommended instead. The still open problem of the short scaling window is discussed in the conclusion.
