Abstract:
Traditional fixed frequency band divisions often limit neural data analysis accuracy. Here, we present a protocol for assisting frequency band definition for multichannel neural data using macaque electrocorticography (ECoG) data. We describe steps for performing time-frequency analysis on preprocessed signals and applying hierarchical clustering to frequency power profiles to identify data-informed groupings. We then detail procedures for defining frequency bands guided by these clusters and using multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) on the derived bands for functional validation via time-series decoding. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Tanigawa et al.1.
