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_prepare_sourcemodel: Compute MNI transformation (linear and non-linear) => Peter
- ft_prepare_heamodel: Add support from BEM surfaces from the Brainstorm database
- Freqanalysis: ITC
- ft_read_atlas('TTatlas+tlrc.BRICK');
ft_volumereslice: http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/faq/how_change_mri_orientation_size_fov
- ft_freqanalysis
- ft_combineplanar
- 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

- 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)

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

- 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

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)

- 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

- MacOS 10.14.5 (Mojave):
- 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:
- (TF) Units are weird with % values
- (TF) Difficult to navigate in frequencies: Scaling+changing frequency resets the scaling
- Progress bar:
- Doesn't close properly on some Linux systems
- Focus requests change workspace when processing constantly (Linux systems)
- MacOS bugs:
- Buttons {Yes,No,Cancel} listed backwards
- Record tab: Text of epoch number is too big
- Colormap menus: Do not work well on compiled MacOSX 10.9.5 and 10.10
- Canolty maps computation: Fix progress bar
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
- Replace big switch with separate functions
- Fix all the 'todo' blocks in the code
