Combining EMD with ICA to Analyze Combined EEG-fMRI Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
Within a combined EEG-fMRI study of contour integration, we analyze responses to Gabor stimuli with a combined Empirical Mode Decomposition and an Independent Component Analysis. Generaly, responses to different stimuli are very similar thus hard to differentiate. EMD and ICA are used intermingled and not simply in a sequential way. This novel combination helps to suppress redundant modes resulting from an application of ensemble EMD alone. The simulation results show an improved mode separation quality. Hence, the proposed method is an efficient data analysis tool to clearly reveal differences between similar response signals and activity distributions.

متن کاملEEG Artifact Removal System for Depression Using a Hybrid Denoising Approach
Introduction: Clinicians use several computer-aided diagnostic systems for depression to authorize their diagnosis. An electroencephalogram (EEG) may be used as an objective tool for early diagnosis of depression and controlling it from reaching a severe and permanent state. However, artifact contamination reduces the accuracy in EEG signal processing systems. Methods: This work proposes a no...

The brain – computer interface (BCI) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. Most of these systems are based on brain activities. Brain Computer-Interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. The success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...

متن کاملIndependent component analysis of interictal fMRI in focal epilepsy: Comparison with general linear model-based EEG-correlated fMRI
The general linear model (GLM) has been used to analyze simultaneous EEG-fMRI to reveal BOLD changes linked to interictal epileptic discharges (IED) identified on scalp EEG. This approach is ineffective when IED are not evident in the EEG. Data-driven fMRI analysis techniques that do not require an EEG derived model may offer a solution in these circumstances. We compared the findings of indepe...
