Abstract :
A technique is reported for studying interactions among many subsystems of a biological system. A general mathematical technique is developed for information flow among various subsystems of a system when two or more classes of stimuli are presented to the system. The technique was validated by various simulation studies and then applied to a brain system. The usefulness of the technique is reported for visual event related potentials (ERP) obtained from human subjects. The principle can be applied to any system in which subsystem interactions are to be analyzed
