<div>I have several comments on this post:</div>
<ol>
<li>Hardware has nothing to do with it – it is software that allows us to localize and correlate</li><li>"hi-res timebase" I suppose means a high sampling rate – this will not help much either as volume conduction is close to the speed of light</li><li>Active electrodes are good for reducing noise and the use of gel, but provide nothing to help with localization or correlation analysis</li><li>"triangulation" implies what the field calls source localization/imaging/analysis etc, and there is a vast body of knowledge and literature on this broad topic available – including using individual cortical folding patterns for modeling the putative generators</li><li>A lot of 3D analysis and research is going on – perhaps you are only familiar with clinical systems?</li></ol>

electrodes placed at each 10/20 region, if they all shared a high resolution time base. Think reverse GPS, by measuring timing variances between each electrode site (and especially at EEG spectrum frequencies), there is no reason why specific physical regions
in the brain could not be triangulated for analysis. For extra credit, cortical folding patterns could be integrated with the acquired data to derive subject-specific brainwave signatures.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just wonder if there is a way to calculate the coherence measure between two regions( set of channels—instead of two single channels) in EEGLAB or any other software? In other word, how can we find regions in the brain which their activities
are mostley related to each other using EEG ?</p>
