Oscillation Methods project repository: methodological considerations for studying neural oscillations.
This project is a overview of methodological considerations for analyzing neural oscillations.
Using simulated data, we explore the relationship between data properties and common analysis approaches, highlighting potential issues, organized into a collection of 7 methodological considerations.
These methodological considerations are:
- #1) verifying the presence of oscillations
- #2) band definitions
- #3) aperiodic activity
- #4) temporal variability
- #5) waveform shape
- #6) overlapping rhythms / source separation
- #7) power confounds / signal-to-noise ratio
Each topic is covered by a notebook in this repository.
This project is described in the following paper:
