Abstract

A computationally practical method for performing moving dipole calculations to localize EEG sources in realistic, boundary element (integral equation) type of head models is presented. This method makes use of a rapid method of solving the forward problem of calculating the EEG's produced by a dipole in a realistic head model. This rapid forward calculation method allows the use of standard Simplex search techniques to solve the inverse problem of localizing electrical sources in the brain from EEG's measured on the scalp.

A Kalman filter based methodology for EEG spike enhancement.

In this work, we present a methodology for spike enhancement in electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings. Our approach takes advantage of the non-stationarity nature of the EEG signal using a time-varying autoregressive model. The time-varying coefficients of autoregressive model are estimated using the Kalman filter. The results show considerable improvement in signal-to-noise ratio and significant reduction of the number of false positives.

Visual evoked potential in the newborn: does it have predictive value?

We reviewed studies on the predictive value of visual evoked potentials (VEPs) in the newborn. VEPs demonstrated a good correlation with neurodevelopmental outcome in full-term infants with birth asphyxia. However, their prognostic value in preterm infants is controversial. In preterm infants, most studies showed high specificities for neurodevelopmental outcome, but some studies demonstrated lower sensitivities.
