Neurofeedback Scenario

Post by LeeFX »

Hi, I am working over the Neurofeedback Scenario and I don't get it.
Can someone explain to me the purpose of these Boxes and why they come in this order??

Hello,

These four boxes are used to compute the average band power of the signal, using a sliding window scheme.
First the signal is band-pass filter in the frequency band of interest (not shown on your picture), then the signal is epoched (first box on your picture), in time windows of 1s, with 1/16s of overlap between consecutive time windows (sliding window scheme), then the signal is squared (to compute the power of the signal - second box), then averaged over the epoch (i.e., over the 1s time window - third box), and then averaged over the last 4 epochs (fourth box), to make it smoother.

I hope this helps,

Best,
Fabien
