| Abstract: The purpose of the present paper is to develop a method, based on equal-time correlation, correlation matrix analysis and surrogate resampling, which is able to quantify and describe properties of synchronization of population neuronal activity recorded simultaneously from multiple sites. Initially, Lorenz type oscillators were used to model multiple time series with different patterns of synchronization. Eigenvalue and eigenvector decomposition was then applied to identify “clusters ” of locally synchronized activity and to calculate a “global synchronization index”. Then this method was applied to multichannel data recorded from an in vitro model of epileptic seizures. The results demonstrate that this novel method can be successfully used to analyze synchronization | |||||||||||||||||
