Scorepochs: A Computer-Aided Scoring Tool for Resting-State M/EEG Epochs.

M/EEG resting-state analysis often requires the definition of the epoch length and the criteria in order to select which epochs to include in the subsequent steps. However, the effects of epoch selection remain scarcely investigated and the procedure used to (visually) inspect, label, and remove bad epochs is often not documented, thereby hindering the reproducibility of the reported results. In this study, we present Scorepochs, a simple and freely available tool for the automatic scoring of resting-state M/EEG epochs that aims to provide an objective method to aid M/EEG experts during the epoch selection procedure. We tested our approach on a freely available EEG dataset containing recordings from 109 subjects using the BCI2000 64 channel system.
