[On the study methods of electroencephalograph synchronization].

Synchronous brain activities are considered as an indicator of the functional binding or integration. In this paper, based on the neural electric activities at various spatial scales, we explained the basic concept and measuring index of neural synchronization; then we summarized the main signal processing methods developed for phase synchronization analysis of electroencephalograph (EEG), including the conventional signal processing method, and modern signal modeling approaches. Finally, the main differences among the different methods were compared and some critical problems in the study of EEG synchronization were discussed.
