- 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)
Normalization MNI? solutions with FieldTrip?

Interface
Add a warning when computing a forward model with > 100000 sources (check selection)
- Colormaps: Global colormap max: Should get the maximum across all the open files
- Snapshot:
- Save as image / all figures (similar to Movie/all figure)
- Copy figures to clipboard (with the screencapture function)
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)
Database
- Save iHeadModel somewhere in the datbase structure
Generalize the use of the units (field .DisplayUnits): Save in source files
Connectivity
- Thresholding and stat tests for connectivity matrices:
- Panel Display: Show only the top N% measures
- Connect NxN display:
- Graph on sensors: does not place the sensors correctly in space
- Display as image: Add legend of the elements along X and Y axis
- Display as time series: Display warning before trying to open too many signals
- Optimize display: use surface() instead of line() for links? (as in figure_3d/PlotFibers)
- Time-resolved correlation/coherence: Display as time bands
Processes
- Add MNE-Python functions:

Test speed for writing files:
https://undocumentedmatlab.com/articles/improving-fwrite-performance- 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)
ITC: Inter-trial coherence (see MNE reports for group tutorial)
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811916304232Remove 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
- 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.
- When normalizing with baseline: Propagate with the edge effects marked in TFmask
- 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.

Geeky programming details
- Replace all calls to inpolyhd.m with inpolyhedron.m (10x faster)
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)
