This study introduces a computer program for automated peak detection in averaged evoked potential (AEP) waveforms. The software efficiently processes up to 200 files, aiding neurophysiological research.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Automated analysis of neurophysiological data, such as evoked potentials, is crucial for efficient research.
  • Peak detection in averaged evoked potential (AEP) waveforms presents challenges due to signal noise and variability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel computer program designed for the automated detection of peaks in AEP waveforms.
  • To provide researchers with a tool for efficient and accurate analysis of electrophysiological data.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a computer program written in BASIC for peak detection in AEPs.
  • User-defined interval (window) selection for peak identification.
  • Optional analysis of individual EEG channels or a single reference channel for comparative analysis.
