Statistical significance of task related deep brain EEG dynamic changes in the time-frequency domain

Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc. 2013:2013:1025-8. doi: 10.1109/EMBC.2013.6609678.

Abstract

We present an off-line analysis procedure for exploring brain activity recorded from intra-cerebral electroencephalographic data (SEEG). The objective is to determine the statistical differences between different types of stimulations in the time-frequency domain. The procedure is based on computing relative signal power change and subsequent statistical analysis. An example of characteristic statistically significant event-related de/synchronization (ERD/ERS) detected across different frequency bands following different oddball stimuli is presented. The method is used for off-line functional classification of different brain areas.
