| contents | Kalman filtering has proven to be effective for estimating brain activity using EEG recordings. In particular, the introduced post hoc standardization step of the algorithm, inspired by the sLORETA time-invariant method, reduces the depth bias and thus allows the estimation to appear at the correct depth from the electrode surface. In the current work, we propose first and second-order kinematic evolution models, where the state-space vector includes not only the dipolar source activity but also its velocity and acceleration. Compared to our previous study, this motion model yields smoother and more physically plausible estimates of brain activity even when the measurement noise is high, for both superficial and deep sources. In addition, we introduce a tunable power parameter that enhances the computational efficiency of the algorithm. Our simulation study, which involves thalamic and cortical activity in the somatosensory region, demonstrates that accurate estimation and tracking of both superficial and deep brain activity are feasible. |
