Preprocessing is a critical yet challenging step in electroencephalography (EEG) research due to its significant potential impact on results. We present a protocol for semi-automatic EEG preprocessing incorporating independent component analysis (ICA) and principal component analysis (PCA) with step-by-step quality checking to ensure removal of large-amplitude artifacts. We describe steps for interpolating bad channels, removal of major artifacts by ICA and PCA correction, and exporting processed data. This protocol produced consistent results from users with a broad range of experience.
预处理是脑电图(EEG)研究中一个关键但具有挑战性的步骤,因为它对结果有重大潜在影响。我们提出了一种半自动EEG预处理方案,该方案结合了独立成分分析(ICA)和主成分分析(PCA),并进行逐步质量检查,以确保去除大幅度伪迹。我们描述了插补坏通道、通过ICA和PCA校正去除主要伪迹以及导出处理后数据的步骤。该方案在具有广泛经验的用户中产生了一致的结果。
