摘要
The brain is probably the most interesting example of a complex network having 1/f variability as determined through the analysis of EEG time series and magnetoencephalogram recordings. Herein we develop a theory of 1/f noise of human cognition to explain the recent experimental observations that increasing the difficultly of cognitive tasks accelerates the transition from observed 1/f noise to white noise in decision-making time series.
