Abstract
A method of identifying an epileptogenic zone of a subjects brain includes: receiving a plurality N of physiological brain signals that extend over a duration, each of the plurality N of physiological brain signals acquired from the subjects brain; calculating within a time window a state transition matrix based on at least a portion of each of the plurality N of physiological brain signals, wherein the state transition matrix is a linear time invariant model of a network of N nodes corresponding to the plurality N of physiological brain signals; calculating a minimum norm of a perturbation on the state transition matrix that causes the network to transition from a stable state to an unstable state; and assigning a fragility metric to each of the plurality N of physiological brain signals based on the minimum norm of the perturbation for that physiological brain signal.
