Forward Solution Source Model (e.g. ECD) + Head Model (e.g. boundary-element): V = C V + G
Inverse Solution • Model fitting • Minimize the sum of squares error between the data and the model by adjusting model parameters (dipole location, orientation, magnitude, time-course). • Parameter fitting routines • Levenberg_Marquardt method (Marquardt, 1963) • Simplex method (Nelder and Mead, 1965) • Simulated annealing (Kirkpatrick, 1984) • Genetic algorithms (McNay et al., 1996)
Components of the source reconstruction process Source/Head Model Forward model Inverse solution Registration
1) Source/Head Model • Select data file • Select title for the analysis • Select “MRI”
Select the relevant source model ‘Equivalent Current Dipoles’ (ECD) ‘Imaging’ • Select the size of your head model
2) Registration • This stage co-registers the EEG sensory positions with the head model • Approximately matches anatomical markers between the two spaces • Followed by a more accurate surface-matching routine.
3) The Forward Model • Select “Forward Model” • This will now create a forward model based on the specifications of your source model and your head model.
Forward model Inverse solution Source model Registration Important! Repeated for each condition The same for all conditions. Therefore, only done ONCE for each subject
The 3D reconstruction is now complete, and you are ready to perform you statistical analyses.
