Abstract

A system for closed-loop pulsed transcranial stimulation for cognitive enhancement. During operation, the system identifies a region of interest (ROI) in a subject's brain and then estimates ROI source activations based on the estimated source of the ROI. It is then determined if a subject is in a bad encoding state based on the ROI source activations. Finally, one or more electrodes are activated to apply a pulsed transcranial stimulation (tPS) therapy when the subject is in a bad encoding state, a predefined external event or behavior occurs, or the subject is in a consolidation state during sleep.
