KIT phantom dataset tutorial#

Here we read KIT data obtained from a phantom with 49 dipoles sequentially activated with 2-cycle 11 Hz sinusoidal bursts to verify source localization accuracy.

Filtering raw data in 1 contiguous segment
Setting up low-pass filter at 40 Hz

FIR filter parameters
---------------------
Designing a one-pass, zero-phase, non-causal lowpass filter:
- Windowed time-domain design (firwin) method
- Hamming window with 0.0194 passband ripple and 53 dB stopband attenuation
- Upper passband edge: 40.00 Hz
- Upper transition bandwidth: 10.00 Hz (-6 dB cutoff frequency: 45.00 Hz)
- Filter length: 661 samples (0.331 s)

We can also look at the power spectral density to see the phantom oscillations at 11 Hz plus the expected frequency-domain sinc-like oscillations due to the time-domain boxcar windowing of the 11 Hz sinusoid.

spectrum = raw.copy().crop(0, 60).compute_psd(n_fft=10000)
fig = spectrum.plot(amplitude=False)
fig.axes[0].set_xlim(0, 50)
dip_freq = 11.0
fig.axes[0].axvline(dip_freq, color="r", ls="--", lw=2, zorder=4)

Now we can figure out our epoching parameters and epoch the data and plot it.

tmin, tmax = -0.08, 0.18
epochs = mne.Epochs(raw, tmin=tmin, tmax=tmax, decim=10, picks="data", preload=True)
del raw
epochs.plot(scalings=plot_scalings)

Now we can average the epochs for each dipole, get the activation at the peak time, and create an mne.EvokedArray from the result.

t_peak = 1.0 / dip_freq / 4.0
data = np.zeros((len(epochs.ch_names), n_dip))
for di in range(n_dip):
    data[:, [di]] = epochs[f"dip{di + 1:02d}"].average().crop(t_peak, t_peak).data
evoked = mne.EvokedArray(data, epochs.info, tmin=0, comment="KIT phantom activations")

No projector specified for this dataset. Please consider the method self.add_proj.

Let’s fit dipoles at each dipole’s peak activation time.

trans = mne.transforms.Transform("head", "mri", np.eye(4))
sphere = mne.make_sphere_model(r0=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), head_radius=0.08)
cov = mne.compute_covariance(epochs, tmax=0, method="empirical")
