Critical coupling constants in the functional networks obtained from the epilepsy cohort and the control cohort in different frequency bands.

<p><b>A</b>: A significantly lower in the theta and low alpha band indicates that the functional network in the interictal state of the epilepsy cohort is closer to synchronization than in the control cohort. Interestingly, ictal discharges occur in the theta band as well. Level of significance: . Error bars indicate the standard error of the mean. . <b>B</b>: Receiver operating characteristic for the detection of members of the epilepsy cohort through use of thresholded values of as the discriminating factor for networks inferred from either the theta or low-alpha band. The red dot indicates the point with best discrimination, which is the point closest to the point of perfect classification (,). Abbreviations: FPR - false positive rate, TPR - true positive rate, SNS - sensitivity, SPC - specificity, PPV - positive predictive value, AUC - area under the curve thr - threshold for discrimination.
