This paper presents a new method to estimate dynamic neural activity from EEG signals. The method is based on a Kalman filter approach, using physiological models that take both spatial and temporal dynamics into account. The filter's performance (in terms of estimation error) is analyzed for the cases of linear and nonlinear models having either time invariant or time varying parameters. The best performance is achieved with a nonlinear model with time-varying parameters.
