Analysis of bistable perception based on MEG data

In the present research we studied the cognitive processes, associated with the perception of ambiguous images using the multichannel MEG recordings. Using the wavelet transformation, we considered the dynamics of the neural network of brain in different frequency bands, including high (up to 100 Hz) frequency gamma-waves. Along with the time-frequency analysis of single MEG traces, the interactions between remote brain regions, associated with the perception, were also taken into consideration. As the result, the new features of bistable visual perception were observed and the effect of image ambiguity was analyzed.
