What's next
A roadmap to the future developments of Brainstorm.
Contents
Recordings
- Default montages for EEG (sensor selection)
- Sleep scoring wish list (Emily C):
- Configurable horizontal lines (for helping detecting visually some thresholds)
- Mouse ruler: Measure duration and amplitude by dragging the mouse.
- Automatic spindle detector
https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/page-overlap-while-reviewing-raw-file-a-way-to-set-to-0/11229/13
- RAW file viewer:
- Downsample before filtering? (attention to the filter design)
- Add parameter to make the visual downsampling more or less aggressive
- Pre-load next page of recordings
- Keep the filter specifications in memory instead of recomputing for every page
- Bad trials: When changing the status of bad to good: remove the bad segments as well, otherwise it is not processed by processes like the PSD.
- Review clinical recordings: Reduce the dimensionality of the data with a simple inverse problem, similar to what we do for the magnetic extrapolation ("Regional sources" in BESA, cf S Rampp)
- MEG/EEG registration: Apply the same transformation to multiple runs
- Create heat maps: Maybe with matlab function heatmap?
BioSemi: Add menu "Convert naming system" to rename channels into 10-10 (A1=>FPz)
Interface
Add a warning when computing a forward model with > 100000 sources (check selection)
- Snapshot: Save as image / all figures (similar to Movie/all figure)
Generalize the use of the units (field .DisplayUnits): Rewrite processes to save the units correctly
- Colormaps:
- Allow brightness/contrast manipulations on the custom colormaps
- Global colormap max: Should get the maximum across all the open files
- Copy figures to clipboard (with the screencapture function)
- Smooth display from figure_image (ERPimage, raster plot...)
Contact sheets & movies: use average of time windows instead of single instants, for each picture.
- Contact sheets: Allow explicit list of times in input (+ display as in MNE-Python with TS)
- Display CTF coils: Show discs instead of squares
- Use boundary() instead of conhull() in all the display functions (ie. 2DDisc)
- Progress bar: Add a "Cancel" button
- Error message: Add a link to report directly the bug on the forum
Reorganize menus (Dannie's suggestion):
Connectivity
- Thresholding and stat tests the connectivity matrices
- Connectivity on unconstrained sources: "Default signal extraction for volume grids should be the time series of the first principal component of the triplet signals after each has been zero-meaned" (SB)
- Display of connectivity graphs:
- Display as straight lines
- Recode 2D graphs
- 3D display with anatomical constrains
- Display using real position of EEG electrodes
- Use new band-pass filters in bst_connectivity ('bst-hfilter' instead of 'bst-fft-fir')
- Matrix view of NxN graphs: Add legend of the elements along X and Y axis
- Weighted Phase Lag Index (WPLI)
- Graph view:
- Does not display negative values correctly (correlation or difference of coherence)
- Re-write using pure Matlab code and smoothed graphics
- Fixed scales for intensity sliders
- Text bigger
- Too much data in appdata
- Fixed scales for intensity sliders
- Add "=" shortcut for having graphs with similar configurations
- Disable zoom in one region (serious bugs)
- NxN on sensors: does not place the sensors correctly in space
- Coherence:
Average cross-spectra instead of concatenating epochs (to avoid discontinuities)
Explore inter-trial approaches (Esther refers to chronux toolbox)
- Granger: Check for minimum time window (Esther: min around 500-1000 data points)
- PLV:
- Add p-values
- Remove evoked
- Optimize code
- Add time integration
- Unconstrained sources
- Add warning when running of short windows (because of filters)
- Time-resolved correlation/coherence: Display as time bands
Tutorial coherence [1xN] : Reproduce FieldTrip results?
Connect NxN: Display as time series > Display warning before trying to open too many signals
Processes
- Plugin manager:
- Export all the software environment to a .zip file (brainstorm + all plugins)
- Generate fully reproducible scripts, including all the interactive/graphical parts:
- Saving all the interactive operations as process calls
- Improving the pipeline editor to handle loops over data files or subjects
- Keeping a better track of the provenance of all the data (History field, and maybe more uniform file names)
- Add MNE-Python functions:
- scikit-learn classifiers
https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/ica-on-very-long-eeg/23556/4
https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/best-way-to-export-to-mne-python/12704/3

Spatial resolution metrics in source space:
https://mne.tools/stable/auto_examples/inverse/plot_resolution_metrics.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-inverse-plot-resolution-metrics-py- Change the graphic renderer from Matlab
Add FieldTrip functions:
- ft_sourceanalysis:
- Check noise covariance
- Check all the options of all the methods
- Single trial reconstructions + noise covariance?
Filters?? http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/example/common_filters_in_beamforming
Beamformers: Save ftSource.avg.mom
http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/workshop/meg-uk-2015/fieldtrip-beamformer-demohttp://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/tutorial/beamformingextended
- Baseline? Two inputs?

- ft_sourceanalysis:
- Optimization:
- Use CUDA for speeding up some operations (filtering, wavelets, etc)
- Use Matlab Coder to optimize: Wavelets, bandpass filter, sinusoid removal
- Pipeline editor:
- Bug: After "convert to continuous", the time of the following processes should change
- Add loops over subjects/conditions/trial groups
- Events: Allow selection from a drop-down list (similar to option "channelname" in panel_process_selection)
- When computing sources from the pipeline editor: doesn't reselect the options if you click twice on "edit" (works for minnorm, but not for lcmv)
ITC: Inter-trial coherence (see MNE reports for group tutorial)
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811916304232- ICA:
Add Alex's suggestions: https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/ica-on-very-long-eeg/23556/4
- Add methods: SOBI, Fastica, AMICA/CUDICA/CUDAAMICA (recommended by S Makeig)
- Why doesn't the ICA process converge when using 25 components in the EEG tutorial?
- Add an option to resample the signals before computing the ICA decomposition
- Exploration: Add window with spectral decomposition (useful for muscle artifacts)
- Export IC time series (and then compute their spectrum): solves the problem above
Comparison JADE/Infomax:
http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0030135- Use faster methods (MNE-Python?)
Dimension reduction with PCA adds artifacts: Not done by default in EEGLAB
Contact: Stephen Shall Jones ( shall-jones@infoscience.otago.ac.nz )
Student Carl Leichter detailed this in his thesis- S Makeig: Use ICA to select the IC of interest instead of only removing artifacts
- Display of spectrum for components (PSD/FFT)
- Import ICA matrices available in EEGLAB .set files
EEGLAB recommends ICA + trial rejection + ICA again: Impossible right now with Brainstorm
(http://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/Chapter_09:_Decomposing_Data_Using_ICA)ICA+machine learning: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28497769
Automated artifact rejection: https://arxiv.org/abs/1612.08194
Use EYE-EEG: EEGLAB toolbox for eye-tracker guided ICA (Olaf Dimigen): http://www2.hu-berlin.de/eyetracking-eeg/
- Other EEGLAB functions:
Step function detection: https://github.com/lucklab/erplab/wiki/Artifact-Detection:-Tutorial
- SSP:
Display warning if changing the ChannelFlag while there is a Projector applied
- Spectral flattening (John):
- ARIMA(5,0,1): Apply on the signal before any frequency/connectivity/PAC analysis
- PSD:
- Rewrite to have the same input as coherence (frequency resolution instead of window length)
Allow display of Avg+StdErr
Remove line noise: http://www.nitrc.org/projects/cleanline
- Time-frequency:
- Optimization: bst_timefreq (around l.136), remove evoked in source space: Average should be computed in sensor space instead of source space (requested by Dimitrios)
Short-time Fourier transform: http://www.mikexcohen.com/lectures.html
Matching pursuit: http://m.jneurosci.org/content/36/12/3399.abstract?etoc
- Bug: Display logs as negative
- Bug: 3D figures: Colormaps with "log" option doesn't work
- Bug: Difference of power displayed in log: problems (Soheila)
- 2D Layout in spectrum
- Make much faster and more memory efficient (C functions coded by Matti ?)
- TF scouts: should display average of TF maps
- Impossible to keep complex values for unconstrained sources
- Pad short epochs with zero values for getting lower frequencies
- Hilbert with time bands very slow on very long files (eg. 3600s at 1000Hz) because the time vector is still full (10^7 values): save compressed time vector instead.
- Extend clusters tab to display of TF to overlay TF signals (Svet)
- When normalizing with baseline: Propagate with the edge effects marked in TFmask
- Allow baseline normalization of files computed with time bands
- Allow running TF on montages
- Review continuous files in time-frequency space (for epilepsy)
- Bug when computing TF on constrained and unconstrained scouts at the same time (in mixed head models for instance): uses only the constrained information and doesn't sum the 3 orientations for the unconstrained regions.
- Artifact detection:
- Artifact rejection like SPM: if bad in 20%, bad everywhere
- Test difference between adjacent samples
- Events detection: Add option "std" vs "amplitude"
- Simulation:
- Use field process field "Group" to separate Input/Processing/Output options
- Use new Matlab functions: movmean, movsum, movmedian, movmax, movmin, movvar, movstd
Database
- MEG protocols: More flexible organization of the database; sub-conditions to allow different runs X different conditions.
- Matrix files: Allow to be dependent from other files
- Rename multiple files
- Default headmodel lost when reloaded: Keep selection on the hard drive (in brainstormstudy.mat)
- Auto-save:
protocol.mat can be too big: do not store the results links in it (and recreate when loading)- http://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/abnormally-slow-behavior/2065/10
- Improve auto-save: add tracking file next to protocol.mat, do not save all the time, only when closing app, and reload protocol at stratup if tracking file is still there

Reproduce results in "Simultaneous human intracerebral stimulation and HD-EEG, ground-truth for source localization methods": https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-020-0467-x
Use eLORETA instead of sLORETA?
https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/compute-eeg-sources-with-sloreta/13425/6"eLORETA algorithm is available in the MEG/EEG Toolbox of Hamburg (METH)": https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2019/10/17/809285.full.pdf
- Point-spread and cross-talk functions (code in MNE-Python):
- Dipoles:
- Project individual dipoles files on a template
- panel_dipoles: Doesn't work with multiple figures
- Project sources: Very poor algorithm to project sub-cortical regions and cerebellum (algorithm to fit surfaces should be imrpoved)
Menu head model > Copy to other conditions/subjects (check if applicable first)
Menu Sources > Maximum value: Doesn't work with volume or mixed head models
- Mixed head models:
- Set loose parameter from the interface
- Bug when displaying interpolated in MRI viewer
- Volume grid:
- Optimize: 3D display (better than 9x9 cubes)
- Optimize: vol_dilate (with 26 neighbors)
Menu Sources > Simulate recordings:
- Do not close the 3D figures after generating a new file
- Add a process equivalent to this menu
- Panel Get coordinates: Add button "find maximum"
- BEM single sphere: Get implementation from MNE
- Unconstrained sources:
- Stat and connectivity: what to do? (re-send email John+Sylvain)
Sources on surface: Display peak regions over time (time = color) => A.Gramfort
- Process "Extract scouts time series": Add PCA option (replace isnorm with choice PCA/Norm)
- Add eyes models to attract eye activity
Anatomy
FastSurfer: https://deep-mi.org/research/fastsurfer/
SimNIBS: Replace HEADRECO with CHARM (headreco will be removed in SimNIBS 4)
- Infant templates: Add electrodes positions (at least 10-10)
Neurodev MRI database: https://jerlab.sc.edu/projects/neurodevelopmental-mri-database/
- Multi-Scale Brain Parcellator (Lausanne2008):
- Registration:
Getting electrode positions from 3D scanners: https://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/Get_chanlocs
Use the same registration for multiple recording sessions that have already re-registered previously (eg. with MaxFilter)
- When linking multiple EEG recordings including 3D positions, do the registration only once and copy it to all the runs
- Select and remove bad digitized head points before automatic coregistration
Load the MNE -transf.fif: http://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/showthread.php?2830
- MRI Viewer:
- Pan in zoomed view (shift + click + move?)
- Zoom in/out with mouse (shift + scroll?)
- Ruler tool to measure distances
- Display scouts as additional volumes
Render surface envelope in the MRI as a thin line instead of the full interpolation matrix
Or use inpolyhedron to get a surface mask and then erode it to get the volume envelope- Edit fiducials: Replace 6 text boxes with 1 for easy copy-paste (see fiducials.m)
Optimize computation interpolation MRI-surface (tess_tri_interp) => spm_mesh_to_grid
BrainSuite:
Add new labels to all BrainSuite anatomy templates
- Use same colors for left and right for anatomical atlases
- Use for volume coregistration (rigid / non-rigid)
- USCBrain: Add default electrodes positions
- FEM templates for different ages:
- Scouts:
- Display edges in the middle of the faces instead of the vertices
- Display scouts in a tree: hemisphere, region, subregion
- Sort scouts by region in process options
- Downsample to atlas: allow on timefreq/connect files
Project from one hemisphere to the other using registered spheres/squares (http://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/how-to-create-mirror-roi-in-the-other-hemisphere/5910/8)
- Parcellating volume grids: scikit-learn.cluster.Ward
- Major bug when importing surfaces for an MRI that was re-oriented manually
Surface>Volume interpolation: Use spm_mesh_to_grid
- Bug: Hide scouts in the preview of the grid for volume head models
Geodesic distance calculations:
https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/6110-toolbox-fast-marching- Allen Institute gene expression atlases: Import in Brainstorm as source maps and display on cortex
ECOG/SEEG

- Add menu to import implantation channel file in imported recordings
- SEEG/ECOG: Identify contacts in resected areas / identify ROIs for each contact
- SEEG/ECOG: Identify contacts in a given anatomical region (volume scout, surface mesh, or label in a volume atlas) / allow extracting the signals from all the contacts in an ROI
- Automatic segmentation of CT:
- ECOG:
- Project and display contacts on cortex surface should consider the rigidity of the grids: Contacts cannot rotate, and distance between contacts should remain constant across runs
Method for contacts projection: https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/f10d/6b899d851f3c4b115404298d7b997cf1d5ab.pdf
ECOG: Brain shift: When creating contact positions on a post-implantation image, the brain shift should be taken into account for creating images of the ECOG contacts on the pre-op brain => iELVis (http://ielvis.pbworks.com/w/page/116347253/FrontPage)
- Display:
- Bad channels: Contacts greyed out instead of ignored (Marcel)
- Display time in H:M:S
- Display curved SEEG electrodes
Export list of contacts with a probability of anatomical regions from various atlases: https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/seeg-contacts-anatomical-location/14756
Detection CEEP stim artifacts: Use ImaGIN code ImaGIN_StimDetect
Statistics
- ANOVA:
- Which functions to use?
- Write panel similar to Process1 and Process2 to allow the
- 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
Quality control before statistics, on condition averages across subjects:
mean(baseline)/std(baseline): shows bad subject quickly.Use SurfStat: Impements interesting things, like an analytical cluster-based p-value correction (Random-field theory which is used in SPM) - Peter
- Export to R or SPSS for advanced stat

- Toggle buttons do not show their status
- Panel Record: Text is too large for text boxes
- Image viewer:
- Difficult to get to 100%
- Buggy on some systems
- 2DLayout:

Geeky programming details
- Replace all calls to inpolyhd.m with inpolyhedron.m
- bst_bsxfun: After 2016b, we can use directly the scalar operators (./ .* ...) instead of bsxfun. Update bst_bsxfun to skip the use of bsxfun when possible.
Interface scaling: Rewrite class IconLoader to scale only once the icons at startup instead of at each request of an icon (might improve the speed of the rendering of the tree)
- Processes with "radio" and "radio_line" options: Replace with "radio_label" and "radio_linelabel"
- Interpolations: Use scatteredInterpolant, griddedInterpolant, triangulation.nearestNeighbor (2014b)
- bst_warp and channel_project: Use tess_parametrize_new instead of tess_parametrize
- Shared kernels: "get bad channels" operation in a different way (reading all the files is too slow)
- Optimize bst_get:
- Now study and subject have necessarily the same folder name
