Recent neuroscience studies have suggested that controlling the excitation and inhibition (E/I) balance is essential for maintaining normal brain function. However, while control of time-varying E/I balance is considered essential for perceptual and motor learning, an efficient method for estimating E/I balance changes has yet to be established. To tackle this issue, we propose a new method to estimate E/I balance changes by applying neural-mass model-based tracking of the brain state using the Ensemble Kalman Filter. In this method, the parameters of synaptic E/I gains in the model are estimated from observed electroencephalography (EEG) signals. Moreover, the index of E/I balance was defined by calculating the ratio between synaptic E/I gains based on estimated parameters. The method was validated by showing that it could estimate E/I balance changes from human EEG data at the sub-second scale, indicating that it has the potential to quantify how time-varying changes in E/I balance influence changes in perceptual and motor learning. Furthermore, this method could be used to develop an E/I balance-based neurofeedback training method for clinical use.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
