Automatic Parametrization of Somatosensory Evoked Potentials With Chirp Modeling

Automatic Parametrization of Somatosensory Evoked Potentials With Chirp Modeling

Author(s)3: Eero Väyrynen, Kai Noponen, Ashwati Vipin, X. Y. Thow, Hasan Al-Nashash, Jukka Kortelainen
Automatic Parametrization of Somatosensory Evoked Potentials With Chirp Modeling 780 435 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

In this paper, an approach using polynomial phase chirp signals to model somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) is proposed. SEP waveforms are assumed as impulses undergoing group velocity dispersion while propagating…
