Source Model Dipole Orientation For EEG: constraint or unconstrained?

Dear Hasan,

The positive/negative values are well explained in the Source estimation tutorial:
http://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Tutorials/SourceEstimation#Sign_of_constrained_maps

People in EEG source modeling tend to use unconstrained models, as illustrated in the EEG/Epilespy tutorial, because it produces smoother maps. EEG does not have the spatial resolution we can expect from MEG, the information we collect at the surface of the head is a lot more smeared, so there is no hope to localize precisely the activity within a sulcus.

Please read carefully all the introduction tutorials and get back to us if you have more questions.

Thanks,
Francois
