Entropy Metrics Correlating with Higher Residual Functioning in Patients with Chronic Disorders of Consciousness

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
To test the ability of different entropy measures to classify patients with different conditions of chronic disorder of consciousness, we applied the Lempel–Ziv complexity, the amplitude coalition entropy (ACE), and the synchrony coalition entropy (SCE ...
