Abstract

A package of methods and an experimental set-up for the analysis of dynamics of electrical signals from the brain. The methods described and discussed in this study allow detailed and multipurpose analysis of brain potentials both in the time and frequency domains. Special emphasis is given to a new computer-method introduced in this study: A posteriori selective averaging. The selective averaging method is compared with Wiener Filter Estimation of Evoked Potentials.
