The technology to collect brain imaging and physiological measures has become portable ubiquitous, opening the possibility of large-scale analysis real-world human imaging. By its nature, such data is large complex, making automated processing essential. This paper shows how lack attention very early stages an EEG preprocessing pipeline can reduce signal-to-noise ratio introduce unwanted artifacts into data, particularly for computations done in single precision. We demonstrate that ordinary...

We examine the problem of accurate detection and classification artifacts in continuous EEG recordings. Manual identification artifacts, by means an expert or panel experts, can be tedious, time-consuming infeasible for large datasets. use autoregressive (AR) models feature extraction characterization signals containing several kinds subject-generated artifacts. AR model parameters are scale-invariant features that used to develop across a population. support vector machine (SVM) classifier...

Although several guidelines for best practices in EEG preprocessing have been released, even studies that strictly adhere to those contain considerable variation the ways recommended methods are applied. An open question researchers is how sensitive results of analyses variations and parameters. To address this issue, we analyze effect on downstream analysis using simple signal event-related measures. Signal measures include recording-level channel amplitudes, study-level amplitude...

Electroencephalography (EEG) offers a platform for studying the relationships between behavioral measures, such as blink rate and duration, with neural correlates of fatigue attention, theta alpha band power. Further, existence EEG studies covering variety subjects tasks provides opportunities community to better characterize variability these measures across subjects.

Recent advances in sensor and recording technology have allowed scientists to acquire very large time-series datasets. Researchers often analyze these datasets the context of events, which are intervals time where properties signal change relative a baseline signal. We developed DETECT, MATLAB toolbox for detecting event long, multi-channel series. Our primary goal is produce that simple researchers use, allowing them quickly train model on multiple classes assess accuracy model, determine...

Low order moments of the alpha dynamo equations in a geophysical regime are related to dependent variables reversing disk dynamo. The link suggests that nonperiodic reversal is an intrinsic feature provided forcing vigorous and toroidal poloidal magnetic fields sufficiently out phase. nonuniformities frequency then attributable subcritical instability.
