    Electroencephalography (EEG) mapping relies on spatial interpolation, where the choice of interpolation exponent significantly impacts results. An exponent of n=3 provides the most plausible topographical maps for EEG analysis.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Electric potential measurements in electroencephalography (EEG) provide differential readings between electrode locations.
    • Interpreting regional EEG activity and creating topographical maps necessitates spatial interpolation, a key factor in spatial resolution.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the impact of the interpolation algorithm's power exponent (n) on EEG topographical mapping accuracy.
    • To evaluate different recording and reporting methods for quantitative EEG analysis.

    Main Methods:

    • Spatial interpolation algorithms were studied by varying the power exponent (n) of the interelectrode distance (d).
    • EEG maps were generated and evaluated for different values of n, including near zero, very high (n>=20), n=1, n=2, and n=3.

  • The influence of linear versus non-linear calculation methods for quantitative EEG maps was also examined.

    • Main Results:

    • Interpolation with n close to zero averages surrounding values; high n favors the nearest electrode's value.
    • An exponent of n=1 produced maps unlikely to represent the true scalp field.
    • An exponent of n=3 was determined to yield more plausible EEG maps compared to n=2, and was chosen as the regular method.

    Conclusions:

    • The selection of the interpolation exponent is critical for accurate EEG topographical mapping.
    • An exponent of n=3 is recommended for generating plausible EEG maps.
    • Non-linear calculation methods for quantitative EEG data (e.g., power, RMS) offer different interpretation possibilities compared to linearly calculated maps.
