Abstract:
Due to model misspecification, currently-used Dipole Source Localization (DSL) methods may contain Multiple-Generator Errors (MulGenErrs) when fitting simultaneously-active dipoles. The size of the MulGenErr is a function of both the model used, and the dipole parameters, including the dipoles' waveforms (time-varying magnitudes). For a given fitting model, by examining the variation of the MulGenErrs (or the fit parameters) under different waveforms for the same generating-dipoles, the accuracy of the fitting model for this set of dipoles can be determined. This method of testing model misspecification can be applied to evoked potential maps even when the parameters of the generating-dipoles are unknown. The dipole parameters fitted in a model should only be accepted if the model can be shown to be sufficiently accurate.
