The seminar is intended to students who wish to get some background in EEG brain scanning. It will cover basic to advanced methods of EEG scanning and analysis methods.

It will cover multi-electrode analysis methods and maybe some more recent single electrode techniques.

It will cover some applications from Medical to Neuro-marketing.

The background of the students is expected to be diverse.

Students are expected to have a basic background in probability (first year courses) and numerical analysis or optimization (CS course or equivalent).

Basic knowledge in electricity/physics/signal processing/machine learning can be useful but not essential.

 

Please check the Wikipedia page on EEG to get some idea what it is.

For those interested in actual hands on, please check the EEGLAB and FieldTrip software for Matlab.

An example of a paper on Independent Components Analysis for Artifact Removal

 

Students will be required to create a PowerPoint presentation that will be loaded on this site 2 days before the talk and to present in class.

Each presentation will be on a single or few papers and should take about 45 minutes.

 

Grading will be based on the quality and depth of the presentation, and on the quality of the presentation material. The papers below are the basis on which the presentation will be based, but for the presentation, several previous papers (books) will need to be used.

 

Instructions for the presentation

1.       Make sure that you can give the assigned lecture at your allocated date.

2.       Email the PowerPoint presentation for first set of comments by Thursday the week before your lecture.

3.       Email the second version of the presentation by Sunday before your lecture.

4.       If any changes are required following comments you received before or after the lecture, send the final version not later than a day after your lecture.

5.       Font should not be smaller than 28pt, use a round font like Tahoma.

6.       Be prepared with 30-40 slides for a 40min presentation.

7.       The slides complement your lecture; they do not replace your talk. Use rich multi-media presentation.

8.       The paper assigned to you should be complemented with supporting background material.  Please try to add recent applications to the method or topic that you present.
