Temporal EigenPAC for dyslexia diagnosis
Electroencephalography signals allow to explore the functional activity of the brain cortex in a non-invasive way. However, the analysis of these signals is not straightforward due to the presence of different artifacts and the very low signal-to-noise ratio. Cross-Frequency Coupling (CFC) methods provide a way to extract information from EEG, related to the synchronization among frequency bands. However, CFC methods are usually applied in a local way, computing the interaction between phase and amplitude at the same electrode. In this work we show a method to compute PAC features among electrodes to study the functional connectivity. Moreover, this has been applied jointly with Principal Component Analysis to explore patterns related to Dyslexia in 7-years-old children. The developed methodology reveals the temporal evolution of PAC-based connectivity. Directions of greatest variance computed by PCA are called eigenPACs here, since they resemble the classical \textit{eigenfaces} representation. The projection of PAC data onto the eigenPACs provide a set of features that has demonstrates their discriminative capability, specifically in the Beta-Gamma bands.

Altered structural connectivity of the left visual thalamus in developmental dyslexia
Developmental dyslexia is characterized by persistent reading and spelling deficits. Partly due to technical challenges with investigating subcortical sensory structures, current research on dyslexia in humans by-and-lar…
Diffusion MRIThe lack of asymmetry of the Maxwell centroids, and of ocular dominance, in persons with dyslexia
While the existence of an asymmetry between the two Maxwell centroids at the centre of the two foveas recorded using a foveascope, leads to the ocular dominance in good readers, the lack of asymmetry in most of the obser…
