Abstract
This study investigates phase relationships between electrocorticogram (ECoG) signals through Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT), combined with Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD). We perform spatial and temporal filtering of the raw signals, followed by tuning the EMD parameters. It can be seen that carefully tuning of EMD filter, it is possible to capture distinct features of non-stationary data. This makes EMD, combined with HHT a valuable tool of complex brain signal analysis and modeling.
