Tóm tắt

Mathematically simulated data is used to obtain direct comparisons of the accuracies of spline/Laplacian and cortical imaging algorithms in predicting cortical potential. Even though the two approaches have quite different theoretical bases, the two methods provide nearly identical estimates of cortical activity at scales greater than about 2 or 3 cm when 64 electrodes are used.
