Abstract

Since the brain controls heart activations, there should be a correlation between their activities in different conditions. This study investigates the correlation between heart and brain responses to olfactory stimulation. We employed fractal theory and sample entropy to evaluate the complexity of EEG signals and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in the form of R–R time series. We applied four different pleasant odors with different molecular complexities to 13 participants and analyzed their EEG and ECG signals. The results demonstrated that the complexities of HRV and EEG signals are strongly correlated; a bigger alteration in the complexity of olfactory stimuli is mapped to a bigger alteration in the complexity of HRV and EEG signals. This investigation can be similarly done to examine the correlation between various organs and the brain by quantifying the complexity of their signals versus brain signals.
