• Abstract: Oscillatory neural signals such as electroencephalography (EEG) and local field potentials (LFPs) show phase relationships that coordinate communication across brain regions. Modern recordings capture hundreds of channels across many frequency bins, yet standard phase analyses are restricted to only a few variables. The Torus Graph (TG) model, an exponential-family distribution over phases whose univariate and pairwise potentials generalize von Mises distributions, infers principled structure among oscillations but models only static, undirected dependencies and is limited to $\sim \! 100$ variables because its score matching inference scales as $\mathcal{O}(d^{6})$. We introduce a stochastic score matching procedure that reduces the per-iteration cost to $\mathcal{O}(d^{2})$, enabling inference on datasets with thousands of variables. This scalable foundation supports analyses of 1,860 frequency-phase features from multi-electrode LFPs and enables two extensions previously inaccessible to TGs or classical circular statistics: (i) a TG Hidden Markov Model capturing state-dependent phase-coupling changes (e.g., spindle-related states during sleep) and (ii) an autoregressive TG inferring directional interactions via transfer-entropy estimation. Applied to LFP recordings, these models reveal state-dependent phase-interaction patterns between wakefulness and NREM sleep. Together, they enable systematic, large-scale mapping of dynamic and directional phase relationships across brain and cognitive states.

  Existing databases for ECG delineation are small, being insufficient in size and in the array of pathological conditions they represent. This article delves has two main contributions. First, a pseudo-synthetic data generation algorithm was developed, based in probabilistically composing ECG traces given "pools" of fundamental segments, as cropped from the original databases, and a set of rules for their arrangement into coherent synthetic traces. Second, two novel segmentation-based loss functions have been developed, which attempt at enforcing the prediction of an exact number of independent structures and at producing closer segmentation boundaries by focusing on a reduced number of samples.

We suggest the use of Linear Symmetry phase, relying on more than one set of Gabor filters, but with a negligible computational add-on.
