[Eeglablist] sLORETA question

[Neri Baker]

Hi Arno,

Thanks for this info. I have been using eLORETA, but I was interested in whether similar functionality was available in EEGLAB (partly to reduce data transfer back and forth between packages, and partly to see the source code to understand exactly what the various parameters do).

Thank you for the suggestion of LCMV beamforming - it looks very interesting. 

Many thanks,
Neri

sLoreta is an obscure Loreta decomposition, which nobody uses except the NeuroGuide Neurofeedback software. As far as I know, the only way to use sLoreta is to use the NeuroGuide software. It has not been demonstrated to be superior (or inferior) to eLoreta (see the seminal article https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.frontiersin.org_articles_10.3389_fnbeh.2014.00066_full&d=DwIFAg&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=kB5f6DjXkuOQpM1bq5OFA9kKiQyNm1p6x6e36h3EglE&m=Zxef-biWZfrFE9qFTeNsdtYkrHGyh-ZQ8zYm6OxqK8wZhat8hxJJrtPPTFIbHWD1&s=aB-mQ2PLolwFcEqW8bssg_UhLPlQLXH6xXjEJNMt8Do&e= ). It seems relatively equivalent in numerical tests. If someone can enlighten us as to the difference between sLoreta and other Loreta source reconstruction methods, please do so.

Because sLoreta is a rare and not widely accepted form of Loreta, I would recommend instead Pascual Marqui's original eLoreta implementation. 

Also try LCMV beam forming (also available in DIPFIT) which provides less smooth solutions, and is recommended for region of interest connectivity analysis by brain connectivity analysis researchers such as Stefan Haufe.
