Hi everyone, is there a hacknight tonight?

4/13/2017 5:32 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

eferdinand yannick ?

4/13/2017 5:34 PM

eferdinand :

drivas the hacknight is usually on Friday and it is for current team members who are working on projects and have prior experience with BCI,

however You can join us to learn more about what we do, and for future reference about dates and schedules please visit https://www.meetup.com/NeuroTechMTL/

4/14/2017 6:22 PM

yannick :

<!channel>: There is no HackNight tonight (long weekend), we'll see you all next week!

4/18/2017 7:48 PM

eferdinand :

<!channel> if we are keeping the Hack Night on Fridays we will be offering a special Night on the 28th of April

Neuroservo ntremblay_neuroservo Will be joining us bringing 6 devices and devkit for us to hack.

We need qualified experienced BCI geeks to hack the $**t out of it with OpenVibe since we helped developing the Driver.

We'll keep you posted about updates and if we change it to another day, If you're interested please join the event on meetup http://meetu.ps/38G6f6

I�ll try other run to see if I can get a better signal, but I reproduced Alex� P300 with the Muse 2014

4/22/2017 5:51 PM

yannick :

Thanks hubertjb for the muse-io --lsl-eeg 😉 it worked.

4/22/2017 5:52 PM

Wow that's great yannick

4/23/2017 4:41 PM

graeme :

yannick if you have some ten20 or other gel, try putting a bit on the electrodes (including the ears) and you should see a better SNR on the Muse 2014

4/24/2017 12:31 PM

eferdinand :

We re-created this Meetup with NeuroTechMTL http://meetu.ps/e/CKY5J/pCYJj/d

Just to keep track and to avoid confusion, future hacknights will be private only and we will send messages accordingly.

4/24/2017 12:36 PM

yannick :

By private, we mean that we want to control the ratio of newcomers vs experienced / regulars. As seen in other chapters and in Montreal, a high ratio of newcomers during HackNights dilutes the value for everyone. We have less time for the newcomers when many of them show up and the regulars can�t work properly in this demoing/explaining/talking environment. So in order to remain inclusive, but also make the most out of our HackNights for people who actually want to progress on projects, we�ll keep people aware that HackNights are happening and that they can contact us if they are interested, but won�t announce it on Meetup anymore.

4/28/2017 5:11 PM

eferdinand :

We are excited to see the new Neuroservo EEG Hat tonight, We are traveling from the south shore and 'might' be few minutes late, so if you get to D3 and you don't see us there just wait in the Ideation space.

Thank you!

With a bit of luck, I should be recording some SSVEP this week.

5/12/2017 3:07 AM

fred-simard :

For the records, this will be done with my own hardware - built around the ADS1299 - and running my python API on Raspberry Pi.

5/12/2017 3:08 AM

fred-simard :

Nothing fancy, just a matter of getting it all to work together

Hi all! Im from the student club SynapsETS and from the CÉGPA, the Automated Manufacturing Engineering Student Comitee. We're looking for opportunities to organize Shop visit/Lab visit in different branch. So I was wondering if some of you would be interested to show your work to GPA student next semesters, since we got a health technology specialization? <!channel>

5/17/2017 2:06 AM

Forgot to mention, from ETS!

5/17/2017 8:30 PM

naoto :

super!

5/17/2017 8:36 PM

naoto :

how long is the sampling rate and time?

5/17/2017 10:56 PM

fred-simard :

250 Hz, recorded for 20 seconds and averaged over 10 trials. I already developed an algorithm to detect ASSR online, As soon as my setup is fully functionnal, i'll flip this in an online decoding demo

5/17/2017 11:01 PM

fred-simard :

and this the channel in Pz, as suggested by yannick i will be trying Oz next time

5/25/2017 8:51 PM

yannick :

Won�t be able to make it to HackNight tomorrow. I�ll sure be there for the next one!

5/26/2017 1:32 PM

naoto :

yannick hey, last time I returned 2 muses but can I borrow one of them again? or do you know if anyone coming tonight has an extra muse?

5/26/2017 1:34 PM

yannick :

Hey naoto check with eferdinand we have some activities in June, check with him for devices.

5/26/2017 1:38 PM

eferdinand :

We are limited on devices for now, unless here are few here and there I don't kniw about, naoto where did you return the devices?

5/26/2017 1:40 PM

naoto :

eferdinand I returned them to yannick. in that case at least I want to have access during hacknight 🙂

5/26/2017 1:40 PM

eferdinand :

Yes you can have access during hacknight, @yannick are the devices at D3?

5/26/2017 1:56 PM

yannick :

Yup.

5/26/2017 6:00 PM

naoto :

Cool. eferdinand yannick by any chance do you have gold cup electrodes at D3?

5/26/2017 6:18 PM

eferdinand :

Hw many do you want?

5/26/2017 6:18 PM

naoto :

i just need 1

5/26/2017 6:18 PM

eferdinand :

I can take one from the office no problem

5/26/2017 6:18 PM

naoto :

super!

5/26/2017 6:18 PM

eferdinand :

OpenBCI connector?

5/26/2017 6:19 PM

naoto :

I'm not sure what I'm doing but I'm adding a generic header pins to NeuroSky Mindwave

5/27/2017 2:37 AM

naoto :

fred-simard the hacked neurosky seems working. I see pink noise like spectrum. I haven't got ASSR or SSVEP working. Maybe due to the python library's fft (it does binning to output spectrum with 1 hz step) so I will check with raw fft data

5/27/2017 3:13 AM

fred-simard :

naoto One thing you might want to start doing is to record your data and work on your analysis offline. I know you ultimately want an online system, but that will definitely speed up the development of your analysis since you won't depend on a live connection and you'll be free to compare multiple approach on the same data. Only after it works offline, you adapt it for an online application.

5/27/2017 3:16 AM

naoto :

fred-simard: totally makes sense. this is something I always had a problem - since I stopped using mules, I don't have easy way to record/playback eeg signals

5/27/2017 3:17 AM

fred-simard :

naoto python has a csv file object that makes it easy to save/load data. If you can do a FFT, you can write your data to a text file

5/27/2017 3:18 AM

fred-simard :

I don't have right now, but i could share my ssvep analysis, which reads a CSV file

<!channel> Call to all neurohackers of Montreal that possess a Muse headband: PolyCortex is participating to the Festival Eurêka as an science outreach to young children. The festival will be hold from June 9 to June 11 and will welcome more than 30000 people at the Vieux-Port. PolyCortex is participating and is going to propose a concentration boat racing game but they would need more Muse headband to be sure to hold all the weekend. If you have a Muse headband and would like to lend some, please contact me as soon as possible. It would be very appreciated!

5/27/2017 5:55 PM

fred-simard :

benjamindeleener I can lend you 3 and could lend you the famous Mindbox if you'd like

5/27/2017 5:56 PM

fred-simard :

I should be at the hacknight next week,et me know if you want to pick them up

5/27/2017 5:58 PM

benjamindeleener :

fred-simard that would be awesome! We are also coming to the hacknight next week. Thank you very much!

5/27/2017 5:58 PM

fred-simard :

see you then ;)

5/28/2017 6:23 PM

naoto :

one thing that benefits me is if you could share raw EEG data files with successful ASSR/SSVEP so that I can play with the data without actual device

naoto: definitely....

5/31/2017 11:05 PM

fred-simard :

This week, I will be recording SSVEP elicited by a stimulus surrounded by 3 distractors -which are also SSVEP-prone stimuli. If everything goes as planned, the (in-fovea + attended) stimulus should trigger a stronger response and I should be able to decode which stimulus was attended by the subject.

6/5/2017 3:58 PM

fred-simard :

I'm ordering cognionics electrodes (http://cognionics.com/index.php/technology). I got a quote for 25$ each, if anyone wants some, now is the time, you won't get them for a cheaper price. Let me know very quickly.

6/5/2017 4:55 PM

naoto :

fred-simard: I just received my OpenBCI 🙂 do you think these electrodes will work with OpenBCI?

6/6/2017 12:01 PM

eferdinand :

I tried them with OpenBCI they work super fine

6/6/2017 8:45 PM

naoto :

fred-simard then I want 4 of them 🙂

6/6/2017 9:21 PM

fred-simard :

i confirmed the order i'll have 4 for you. Next time i see you, i'll show you the VR-EEG headset i've made over the week-end. Surprisingly slick.

6/7/2017 4:14 AM

naoto :

thanks! I won't be at the hacknights for two weeks though (this week Dublin and next week for exhibition at Concordia)

6/7/2017 4:16 AM

naoto :

fred-simard I think I got SSVEP with OpenBCI, Oz, 200 samples per sec, 2000 samples window (=10 sec). sorry for the flashing lights https://www.instagram.com/p/BVBjQNIlZLT

6/7/2017 11:52 AM

fred-simard :

naoto It sure looks like it. You could try to sweep the SSVEP frequency, at a slow rate. That would give you a traveling peak

6/7/2017 12:46 PM

naoto :

fred-simard sweeping will be interesting to see. I wanted to try but I couldn't make the flickering at an arbitrary rate (right now it blinks every N frame)

6/7/2017 1:39 PM

fred-simard :

naoto you will be limited in choice, the frequency needs to be an integer ratio of your frame rate, but i'm sure you can find a few ratios to sweep through.

6/7/2017 2:26 PM

naoto :

fred-simard: of course, you're right. Maybe I will experiment with Arduino + LED so I have more flexible control

6/8/2017 12:37 AM

fred-simard :

naoto You can also sum up and normalize multiple signals to have multiple components, if that's of any interest

6/9/2017 4:15 PM

fred-simard :

naoto I recorded using 4 stimuli at frequencies: 11, 7, 5, 3 Hz. I'm working on the analysiss, but if you need more I would use 13 and 14. This is a 'one hot' coding scheme, but using combinations of frequencies would increase the number of codes exponentially.

6/9/2017 4:44 PM

fred-simard :

I forgot to say that the recording site is Pz. These are only preliminary results, Eventually I plan on writing a white paper, when I'll have the results I want to present.

6/9/2017 9:44 PM

6/16/2017 11:24 PM

fred-simard :

Short-term I'm sticking to SSVEP, but my goal is to leverage these other forms of stimulation to find the sweet spot between perceptual annoyance and information transfer rate.

Hi <!channel>. Does anyone want to help me for HackerFest? NeuroTechX will be representing at this 24 hour hackathon and I need some help in managing it.

If you are unfamiliar with Hackerfest, it is a hackathon that brings together different communities in Montreal to work on a variety of projects. More details below. Message me if interested.

armin :

Hi Sydney, I am interested to help on Friday or Saturday. What time is appropriate?

7/4/2017 4:06 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

Thanks armin ! I'd need help on the Saturday mostly but you are free to come on both days 🙂. It's 24 hours, but you don't need to stay the whole time. If you were to come from 5-9 on the Friday and then come on the Saturday in the morning until 5-6 ish.

7/4/2017 4:07 PM

armin :

Perfect, I will come for both

7/4/2017 4:07 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

Sweet!

<!channel> Reminder: Hacknights on Friday at 6:30. Happening at District 3 http://d3center.ca/en/contact/

7/5/2017 8:09 PM

fred-simard :

Hey guys, I've just released my white paper on the topic of SSVEPs, I put it in <#C08PVFWH4|eegdata> so that everyone can benefit from it. It only covers my preliminary results, but more to come as new results pump in.

7/6/2017 3:39 PM

naoto :

fred-simard: awesome! I'll take a look later!

7/6/2017 4:05 PM

fred-simard :

Please do, it works very well to be honest. I was expecting more cross-talk between stimuli.

7/6/2017 4:11 PM

fred-simard :

mrkrause: I recommend Abra, or these guys ship surprisingly fast: http://ca.mouser.com/, or if you spend >= 100$ you can go for http://digikey.ca|digikey.ca. If you don't spend >= 100$, digikey bills 20$ of shipping.

7/7/2017 5:04 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

<!channel> Hacknights at D3 as per the usual. 6:30 pm

Hey guys, the hack night was a lot of fun, it was great meeting you all!

7/11/2017 8:14 PM

fred-simard :

Guys, I published another paper in <#C08PVFWH4|eegdata>, this time I'm reporting my results measuring the alpha wave, a classic. For those who are new to EEG recording and analysis, I suggest you start there, this is the easiest paradigm and can be done with practically any hardware. I've done it with the Muse...

7/11/2017 10:29 PM

yannick :

Thanks again for sharing your work with the community!

7/12/2017 3:43 PM

crocodoyle :

I don't think it's legal to require an age range. Just saying.

7/20/2017 3:02 PM

yannick :

It is when these are the requirements of the government offering the salary. 😉

(It�s an internship for younger people to get experience, sponsored by the gov.)

I think maviperu will be interested in your DIY Dry Headcap. (I'll have to wait to be back before I can try it...)

7/28/2017 1:29 PM

maviperu :

awesome!! We will be there!

7/28/2017 5:28 PM

fred-simard :

naoto Now that I've tested the Cognionics electrodes, I'm more confident in sharing them. I'll show you the cap, the electrode support I've made (3d print) and then you can decide if you still want to get a few for yourself. I know you are busy, don't worry if you can't be here tonight, it can be another day.

7/28/2017 6:27 PM

naoto :

thanks! I'm curious to try it. Unfortunately I'm still in Europe till Aug 23 so I will see you when I'm back!

7/28/2017 7:20 PM

benjamindeleener :

I�m out too 😞

9/8/2017 7:10 PM

yannick :

I�ll be there next week for sure! I�ll probably be using HackNights to dive a little more in Deep Learning for EEG. Leveraging existing datasets and all. If other people are interested in joining me, let me know 🙂

9/8/2017 7:12 PM

ray_cassani :

It won't be possible, Fridays are sort of difficult days for me

9/8/2017 7:23 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

Should we move days to Thursday?

9/8/2017 7:24 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

<!channel> Please fill out 🙂

9/8/2017 7:25 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

I guess for tonight. We will cancel hack night

9/12/2017 7:37 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

fred-simard What are the paradigms you are looking at? Still SSVEP?

9/12/2017 8:19 PM

fred-simard :

No SSVEP is mastered. I can't give too many details since this is related to my business work, but it's lying somewhere in the mental effort/focus/attention spectrum.

9/13/2017 1:31 AM

sydneyneurotechx :

gotcha.

9/13/2017 2:28 AM

sydneyneurotechx :

If we do Hacknights this Thursday who can attend? <!channel>?

9/13/2017 3:02 AM

naoto :

probably I'll pass by

9/13/2017 12:02 PM

sidksv :

I'll be there.

9/13/2017 1:18 PM

9/18/2017 6:21 PM

liam_c :

Hi everyone, I'm interested in checking out one of the upcoming hackathons, but I've never been to one before. I'm also not really a hacker/programmer, but they seem like a good way to meet people in the neurotech scene, and hopefully I can contribute in other ways. Where do these happen? what should I expect?

9/19/2017 3:39 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

Hey liam_c . We meet every Thursday at District 3 (1250 Guy Street) at 6:30. You could always drop by and talk with us.

9/19/2017 3:40 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

On that note <!channel> who can show up this Thursday? I won't be available unfortunately as I have a deadline for Saturday. Who will be there?

9/19/2017 3:45 PM

ray_cassani :

I'll be there

9/19/2017 3:47 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

I've booked Conference room 3 that you can use

9/19/2017 6:06 PM

armin :

Hi, I would be there this Thursday

9/19/2017 7:14 PM

yannick :

benjamindeleener are you free Thursday? If ray_cassani can bring the NeuralDrift we could maybe move forward on making the example for the Student Club competition.

(ray_cassani: long story short, we want to use the NeuralDrift as an example of a project for the student club competition, I�ll talk to you about the idea Thursday)

9/19/2017 7:22 PM

ray_cassani :

Sure, sounds great, if based only in Muse device, we could modify the code to be independent from MuLES, and why not, from MATLAB

9/19/2017 7:32 PM

yannick :

Let�s talk about it on Thursday then! 😄

9/19/2017 8:06 PM

benjamindeleener :

yannick unfortunately I can't come this week (you know I have something to prepare right? :-D)

9/19/2017 8:06 PM

benjamindeleener :

But I would be happy to advance on this project

9/19/2017 11:10 PM

ray_cassani :

Can you bring (2) Muse first generation? I'll bring the tablet and robot

9/20/2017 2:29 AM

naoto :

I will pass by on Thursday. Btw I'm working on a gestural/kinetic/audiovisual installation which will be exhibited at MAPP_MTL festival at Never Apart gallery from oct 5th. It's free entry so please come see me! (it's nothing to do with neurotech and sorry for shameless advertisement) https://www.mappmtl.com/invisible https://www.facebook.com/events/505854076429482

9/20/2017 7:24 PM

ray_cassani :

<!channel>, at the MuSAE Lab (INRS) we are looking for participants (18 - 49 years old) for a study on fatigue and mental workload estimation from physiological signals (including wearable EEG). There is a $10/hr remuneration for your time; the duration of your participation is ~3 hours.

<!channel> I can't this week

9/28/2017 9:52 PM

fred-simard :

teaching a class

9/29/2017 5:21 PM

yannick :

Was it better on Friday? Fred is teaching on Wed/Thursday. Is it just Fred who prefers Fridays?

10/2/2017 12:32 AM

fred-simard :

yannick In parallel to the hacknight schedule, I would be down to work on a project of the kind we discussed. Can you make it this Friday? I would be down to try to train a deep learner on some EEG data, just to see how that plays out. <!channel> Open to everyone obviously.

10/4/2017 6:29 PM

fred-simard :

I didn't get a response, I booked something else in my schedule. If anyone is interested in training a deep learner, please let me know and we'll schedule something

10/5/2017 6:09 PM

sidksv :

<!channel> is there a hacknight tonight?

10/5/2017 6:11 PM

sydneyneurotechx :

I can't be there, but I booked the conference room for 6:30

10/5/2017 6:23 PM

naoto :

I don't want to spam but our exhibition is happening tonight 6 pm at never apart (thus I won't be there at hacknight). The gallery is open tomorrow too and every saturdays till beginning of january 🙂

10/10/2017 3:13 PM

fred-simard :

<!channel> I'm looking for a helper to work on my EEG stuff. I'm bound to silence, but it's a very cool project and I've been working on it for about 6 months now so it's not a little thing. There is a remuneration attached to the offer, however this shouldn't be the main factor to apply, since the remuneration will be below any kind of job.

What I'm looking for:

  • someone with a lot of autonomy and with prior EEG data analysis experience. Ideally a master/PhD student who wants to build a portfolio around the development of practical EEG applications.
  • someone experienced with python, at least enough to develop on his own.
  • someone willing to enter a NDA and who will remain discreet on the exact nature of his work, until it goes public.
  • someone who lives in Montreal

Be careful, I have no problem to see someone who is in the process of learning applying, however this is not a EEG 101. I'm looking for someone who will collaborate and contribute to the project.

To apply:

Simply send me a private message, with a summary of your qualifications, how much hours/week you think you can contribute.

10/11/2017 5:13 PM

When do you want to have our next hacknight <!channel>

Thursday or Friday?

10/20/2017 1:29 PM

I�ll see what the others prefer. I know that Fred just can�t on Thursdays and we were talking about starting a Deep Learning project during HackNights.

10/21/2017 12:39 AM

yannick :

naoto: sounds like something you could be interesting in&

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5587109/

Maybe fred-simard would be interested in looking into it.

Maybe a project for HackNights? 😛

naoto :

I watched the attached video but this looks quite bad (sorry if any of you know the authors). It seems they just replaced the visual keys of the speller by notes. Fred and I talked about this topic before but perhaps we should use auditory stimulus/feedback for composition

10/23/2017 3:21 AM

fred-simard :

I had an idea along this line a while back, even discussed it with the guys of LANDR. The first step I envisioned was to build a soiund browser, pretty much in the same way as the Neurable works. Sounds would be clustered and the subject would do some kind of gradient descent toward its desired sound.

10/23/2017 3:22 AM

fred-simard :

It's a big project, but it would be exrremely onteresting

yannick :

Nope, that�s what HackNights are for 🙂 Finding what toys we want to play with

11/5/2017 8:39 PM

fred-simard :

Sounds good, I'll try to stay naive then. I'll show up Nov 17, if you start ahead, let me know and I'll make sure to keep up on my own.

11/5/2017 8:40 PM

fred-simard :

Side note, I plan on doing it in python, but that shouldn't restrain anyone from trying something else.

11/5/2017 8:49 PM

yannick :

I�ll also be Pythoning.

11/7/2017 4:29 PM

Hey, on Friday night, during HackNight, Fred & I started working on Deep Learning for EEG, we started by reproducing this example: https://github.com/pbashivan/EEGLearn

(Creates an image with the features and train a conv net on it.)

Python, Theano & Lasagne.

In 2 weeks (Friday Dec. 1st), we�ll continue EEG DL, reproducing the BrainDecode example(s).

https://robintibor.github.io/braindecode/

https://github.com/robintibor/braindecode/

You are welcome to join our journey to develop Deep Learning for EEG skills (we�re also developing our Python skills along the way, since we are both coming from a C/C++ & Matlab background)

Our short term goal is to (1) train a Deep Net to identify blinks in the EEG signal and then (2) train an EEG generator to be able to remove the blink and replace it it fake plausible EEG data. (no end goal or project, just for fun of developing some skills)

11/19/2017 4:59 PM

fred-simard :

yannick It was a blast, thanks for showing my own to setup and work with anaconda, looking forward to dec 1st.

11/19/2017 5:29 PM
