摘要: The amplitude and latency of single-trial EEG/MEG signals may provide valuable information concerning human brain functioning. In this article we propose a new method to reliably estimate signals. advantages the are fourfold. First, no a-priori specified template function is required. Second, allows for multiple that vary independently in and/or latency. Third, less sensitive noise as it models data with parsimonious set basis functions. Finally, very fast since based on an iterative linear least squares algorithm. A simulation study shows yields reliable estimates under different levels variation signal-to-noise ratioOs. Furthermore, existence can be correctly determined. An application empirical from choice reaction time indicates describes these accurately.
