    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Standardized low-resolution brain electromagnetic tomography (sLORETA) is a widely used EEG source localization technique known for its efficiency.
    • A key limitation of sLORETA is its inherent low resolution, necessitating manual thresholding for sparse source detection.
    • Manual thresholding is subjective and can impact the accuracy and reliability of source localization results.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel, automated subspace-based thresholding method for enhancing EEG source localization resolution.
    • To develop a high-resolution sLORETA (HR-sLORETA) that minimizes least-square source detection error.
    • To objectively evaluate the performance of HR-sLORETA against existing thresholding methods.

    Main Methods:

    • A subspace-based thresholding algorithm was developed to minimize a least-square source detection error.
    • The proposed method, HR-sLORETA, was implemented for EEG source imaging.
    • Performance was assessed using simulation data, comparing HR-sLORETA against manual thresholding and Otsu's method.

    Main Results:

    • HR-sLORETA demonstrated stable and high-resolution source localization performance.
    • The method showed significant improvements in Percentage of Undetected Sources (PUS) and Spatial Dispersion (SD) compared to manual thresholding.
    • HR-sLORETA outperformed Otsu's automatic thresholding method, particularly in scenarios involving three or more distinct brain sources.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed HR-sLORETA offers a superior, automated approach to EEG source localization.
    • This method achieves higher resolution and stability than conventional sLORETA with manual or Otsu thresholding.
    • HR-sLORETA is particularly advantageous for accurately localizing multiple simultaneous brain sources.
