What's next
A roadmap to the future developments of Brainstorm.
Current topics
Functionnal connectivity
Integration of different metrics to study the brain connectivity:
Correlation, coherence, Granger causality, phase locking value- Development of new ways to represent the connectivity between sensors or brain regions
EEG / epilepsy / intra-cranial recordings
- Editing the position of intracranial electrodes in the MRI viewer
Source modeling
- Computation of equivalent current dipoles
- Beamformers
Large scale analysis
- Parallel processing: Reduce the computation times using the parallel processing toolbox
- Distributed processing: Integrate tools for sending Brainstorm processes on computation clusters
Recordings
- RAW file viewer:
- Pre-load next page of recordings
- Documentation: Add definition of bad segments
2DLayout: Doesn't work when changing page => need refresh of GlobalData.Preferences.TopoLayoutOptions.TimeWindow
- EEG reference/storage:
- Intracranial electrodes: Define in the MRI viewer
Bad channels that can be specified at the program level (for sites that have permanently bad channels) => AS Dubarry
- RAW processing:
- Make it work for all the file formats (at least bandpass filter + sin removal)
Events: advanced process for recombining. Example: http://www.erpinfo.org/erplab/erplab-documentation/manual/Binlister.html
- Colormaps:
- Create a colormap similar to MNE, where extrema are bright
- Import data:
- Save properties "baseline" and "resample" at the level of the protocol (to re-use for all the files)
- NIRS:
- Add new data type
- Display of sensors by pairs oxy/deoxy (red/blue), overlaid
- Images of amplitude: [sensor x time], [trial x time], scout: [trial x time]
Can be done with Matrix > View as image: extract cluster, concatenate for all trials
- 2D Layout for multiple conditions
Filtering: Use short FIR filters instead of IIR for bandpass, to limit the ringing
Or allow the users to edit the LowStop parameter in bst_bandpass.
Display
- Nicer 2D topographies, standardized
- Copy figures to clipboard (with the screencapture function)
Connectivity
- Tutorial coherence [1xN]
- t-tests on connectivity measures
- Graph view:
- Fixed scales for intensity sliders
- Fix zoom in one region
- Text bigger
- Too much data in appdata
- Other metrics:
- Coherence by bands: bst_coherence_band_welch.m
- Granger by bands: bst_granger_band.m
- Inter-trial coherence
- Work on progress bars
Processes
- Use Matlab Coder to optimize some processes: Wavelets, bandpass filter, sinusoid removal
- Time-frequency:
- Frequency bands: extended syntax (ex: [2 3 4], 10:5:90, ...)
- How to combine 3 orientations for unconstrained sources
- Display logs as negative
- 2D Layout in spectrum
- Make much faster and more memory efficient (C functions coded by Matti ?)
- Smooth display of TF/PAC maps (option)
- TF scouts: should display average of TF maps
- Bandpass: Show warning when using inappropriate high-pass filter (precision too high)
- Artifact detection:

- Test difference between adjacent samples
- Distributed processing: Brainstorm that can run without Java
- SSP:
Display warning if changing the ChannelFlag while there is a Projector applied
Show where the attenuation is projected:
(sum(IK,2)-sum(SSP(k,:)*IK,2)./sum(IK,2)
- Average:
- Remember how many trials were used per channel
- Save standard deviation
- Display standard deviation as a halo around the time series
- Co-registration of MEG runs:
- SSP: Group projectors coming from different files
- Finish validation of the method
- Apply to continuous recordings for correcting head movements
Current Source Density (CSD) => Ghislaine
http://psychophysiology.cpmc.columbia.edu/software/CSDtoolbox/index.html- Other processes:
- Detrending
- Moving average
- Max
- Median
- Significance test (Dimitrios, Leo)
- Spatial smoothing: check / document parameters
Contact sheets & movies: use average of time windows instead of single instants, for each picture.

Database
- MEG protocols: More flexible organization of the database; sub-conditions to allow different runs X different conditions.
Group matrix files => allow to process matrix files by trial types
- Add notes in the folders (text files, visible as nodes in the tree)
- Screen captures: save straight to the database
- Rename multiple files
Source modeling
- Compare: dSPM vs. wMNE+zscore

Problem of having inividual trials + averages in the condition => Display warning or not?
- Save nAvg in noisecov file, to make it easier to scale to other recordings
When deploying to other conditions: Apply destination SSP (NoiseCov = SSP . NoiseCov . SSP' )

- Simulation: synthesize pseudo data-files from a cortex patch (duration, amplitude, noise)
Calculate ImagingKernel * Gain for a scout
- EEG Source modeling: Manage references and bipolar montages properly (maybe not necessary)

- Sort scouts by region in process options
- Generate mixed density surfaces
- Import / registration:
- Major bug when importing surfaces for an MRI that was re-oriented manually

Statistics
- ANOVA: Use LENA functions
- Output = 1 file per effect, all grouped in a node "ANOVA"
- Display several ANOVA maps (from several files) on one single figure, using a "graphic accumulator", towards which one can send any type of graphic object
- Permutation tests:
- t-test only (wilcoxon? sign-test?): paired, equal var, unequal var
- nb permutations ~ 1000
- maximum statistic over "time" or "time and space"
- Permutations / clustering: cf fieldtrip
Threshold in time: keep only the regions that are significative for contiguous blocks of time, or over a certain number of time points
=> Process that creates a static representation of a temporal window- t-test on volume sources
Paired t-test on unconstrained sources: (convert to flat + Z-score) => AnneSo
