In neuroscience, the data sources include measurements of neural activity measured using electrode arrays, EEG and MEG, brain imaging data from PET, fMRI, and optical imaging methods. Analysis, visualization, and management of these time series data sets is a growing field of research that has become increasingly important both for experimentalists and theorists interested in brain function.

Harmonics in a wider perspective. 330 $aThe science called 'harmonics' was one of the major intellectual enterprises of Greek antiquity. Ptolemy's treatise seeks to invest it with new scientific rigour; its consistently sophisticated procedural self-awareness marks it as a key text in the history of science. This book is a sustained methodological exploration of Ptolemy's project. After an analysis of his explicit pronouncements on the science's aims and the methods appropriate to it, it examines Ptolemy's conduct of his investigation in detail, concluding that despite occasional uncertainties, the declared procedure is followed with remarkable fidelity. Ptolemy pursues tenaciously his novel objective of integrating closely the project's theoretical and empirical phases and shows astonishing mastery of the concept, the design and the conduct of controlled experimental tests. By opening up this neglected text to historians of science, the book aims to provide a point of departure for wider studies of Greek scientific method. 606 $aMusic theory$xHistory$yTo 500 606 $aScience, Ancient 615 0$aMusic theory$xHistory 615 0$aScience, Ancient. 676 $a781./0901 700 $aBarker$b Andrew$f1943-$0186564 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966743503321 996 $aScientific method in Ptolemy's Harmonics$91011491 997 $aUNINA
