The iterative reweighted TF-MxNE solver is a distributed inverse method based on the TF-MxNE solver, which promotes focal (sparse) sources [1]. The benefits of this approach are that:
it is spatio-temporal without assuming stationarity (source properties can vary over time),
activations are localized in space, time, and frequency in one step,
the solver uses non-convex penalties in the TF domain, which results in a solution less biased towards zero than when simple TF-MxNE is used,
using a multiscale dictionary allows to capture short transient activations along with slower brain waves [2].
