| contents | In electroencephalography (EEG) source imaging, the inverse source estimates are depth biased in such a way that their maxima are often close to the sensors. This depth bias can be quantified by inspecting the statistics (mean and co-variance) of these estimates. In this paper, we find weighting factors within a Bayesian framework for the used L1/L2 sparsity prior that the resulting maximum a posterior (MAP) estimates do not favor any particular source location. Due to the lack of an analytical expression for the MAP estimate when this sparsity prior is used, we solve the weights indirectly. First, we calculate the Gaussian prior variances that lead to depth un-biased maximum a posterior (MAP) estimates. Subsequently, we approximate the corresponding weight factors in the sparsity prior based on the solved Gaussian prior variances. Finally, we reconstruct focal source configurations using the sparsity prior with the proposed weights and two other commonly used choices of weights that can be found in literature. |
