Schizophrenia
Chronic, severe, disabling mental disorder
About 1% Americans affected
Causes remain unknown
Symptoms
Positive Symptoms
Hallucination
Delusion
Negative Symptoms
Disruptions to normal emotions and behaviors
Lack of pleasure in everyday life
Cognitive Symptoms
Problems with attention, memory, decision making
Language disorder
Objective
Understand abnormal neural oscillations (frequency, location, time) associated with language disorder in schizophrenia.
Level-specific neural oscillations
Neural dynamics across language levels
Linguistic Task
Discriminate correct & incorrect language stimuli

Discourse
My sister wanted to replace a kitchen cabinet. She called a local
company and gave them the desired dimensions…

Classification (LOO cross validation )
Lexical: 10 Controls, 12 Patients , 20 top features
Semantic: 11 Controls, 10 Patients, 53 top features
Across-level result
Control: sem (10) v.s. dis (9), 20 top features
- LOO cross validation error 3/19
- top features cover multiple bands and at different brain locations
Patient: sem (10) v.s. dis (7), 5 top features
- LOO cross validation error 1/17
- most top features are selected from 12-16Hz frequency band and located at left temporal lobe.
Conclusion
Evaluate abnormal neural oscillation in schizophrenia during language processing
Spectral-spatial-temporal MEG patterns
Two-step feature selection
High classification accuracy
Significant between group oscillation difference
Further Work
Neural dynamics between language levels
Larger dataset
More reliable feature selection algorithm
