The LCMV Beamformer
LCMV Beamformers are a type of beamformer algorithm used source estimation from EEG data. In the previous blog post we saw how beamformers can be…
The BIDS Data Structure for EEG
The Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) project is an effort to create data standards for accessibility, usability and reproducibility of neuroimaging data. Initially developed for…
The Fundamental Challenge of Seizure Detection in the EEG
Despite tens of thousands of publication, accurate seizure detection in the EEG remains an unsolved challenge. Here are some of the reasons why this may…
Solving the EEG/MEG Inverse Problem with Beamformers
Beamformers, a technique adapted from radar applications, are a type of spatial filtering approach to solving the inverse problem in EEG and MEG. Here are…
The Impact of Life Experience on the Human Brain
The brain develops and morphs across the lifespan based on experience. Two talks discuss the impact of our behaviors from physical exercise to cell phone…
Three Talks on Individual Differences in the Brain and Behavior
There are many dimensions along which individual differences manifest in the brain and behavior from how we see, smell and perceive the world. Hear three…
Finding EEG Microstate Classes with Clustering
EEG Microstates are generally identified using clustering algorithms and results can vary depending on choice of algorithm and parameters. In the last post I introduced…
Monitor-and-Act Units as Elements of Intelligence
Where is knowledge stored within the brain and living systems? The concept of monitor-and-act units provides a framework for understanding this. In my last post…
Structural and Dynamical Changes in The Developing Brain
What changes structurally and dynamically in the brain across childhood and how similar are our development trajectories? Dr. Mills and Dr. Miscovic provide two perspectives…
