People

The PREP pipeline incorporates many algorithms that were developed at USCS SCCN over many years by Nima Bigdely-Shamlo, Tim Mullen and Christian Kothe. Kyung Min Su performed most of the machine learning evaluation of PREP. Cassidy Matousek and Jeremy Cockfield worked on the interfaces for the EEGLAB plugin as well as associated visualization tools. Kay Robbins of UTSA is the lead developer and maintainer of PREP.

Version 0.48 (Not released -- version 0.47 with EEGLAB integration)

  • Integrated EEGLAB plugin

  • Changed the default structure value field name from defaults.default to default.value and propagated the change

  • Changed default names of line noise and global trend to linenoise and globaltrend

  • Modified the resampling step to allow an option low pass filter to remove downsampling artifacts just below Nyquist frequency.

    Version 0.47 (Not released -- version 0.46 with additional changes)

  • Minor refactoring of performReference to avoid 1 extra filtering operation --- should not reflect results.

  • Also added average and specific referencing methods -- not tested as yet.

Version 0.46 (Not released - version 0.45 with additional changes)

  • Fixed remapping of bad evaluation channels into original channel numbers (relevant when there are none EEG channels interspersed in the channel locations.
  • Passed detrend information in reference structure to allow detrending with other than the defaults
  • Corrected several channel mapping issues in the reporting.

Version 0.45 (Not released - version 0.44 with additional changes)

  • Refactored report to allow statistics to be gathered from noisy structures

Version 0.44 (Not released - version 0.43 with additional changes)

  • Corrected a minor issue with reporting -- difference between robust and ordinary reference had axes reversed.
  • Updated to run with plotting compatible with MATLAB 2014b
  • Added box on to cummulative plots.

Version 0.43 (Not released - version 0.42 with additional changes)

  • Corrected a minor issue with reporting -- mean scalp correlation map for beforeInterpolation was plotting the Original data rather than the beforeInterpolation data.

Version 0.42 (Not released - version 0.41 with additional changes)

  • Added default line frequencies as multiples of 60 up to half nyquist.

Version 0.41 (Not released - version 0.40 with additional changes)

  • Replaced default method with channel forgetting and median initialization
  • Converted EEG to double at the beginning of the pipeline

  • Added a keepFiltered version -- if false (the default) the data in the repository is not high pass filtered
  • Added an option for removing global trend
  • Incorporated the different reference schemes into a single performReference

Version 0.28 (Not yet released)

  • Changed the name of the noisyParameter structure in EEG.etc to noiseDetection. This is a major change with corresponding change in ESS.
  • Added a specificReferenceChannels field to reference structure
  • Changed the averageReference field name to referenceSignal in reference structure
  • Included a referenceType field in the reference structure (this can be 'robust', 'average', or 'specific')
