The communication between the brain and the heart mediates physiological and cognitive functions.
One of the challenges is to measure these interactions in a non-invasive manner. Therefore, the development of new methodological approaches to estimate brain-heart interplay is of utmost importance.

Heart rate modeling and brain-to-heart estimation
The interplay from the brain to the heart is quantified through a model of synthetic heartbeat intervals, based on an integral pulse frequency modulation model.
Synthetic heartbeats are modeled as Dirac functions, triggered by the integral of a modulation function 𝑚(𝑡), where a new R peak is generated when the integral function reaches a threshold.
EEG modeling and heart-to-brain estimation
The interplay from the heart to the brain is quantified through a model based of synthetic EEG series using an adaptive Markov process.
The changes on EEG are modelled as fluctuations in EEG power at different frequency bands.
The influences of heartbeat dynamics are modelled as an external input in an ARX process.
