Evaluation of the optimal lengths and number of multiple windows for spectrogram estimation of SSVEP
Author
Summary, in English
The purpose of this paper is to present the optimal number of
windows and window lengths using multiple window spectrogram for
estimation of non-stationary processes with shorter or longer
duration. Such processes could start in the EEG as a result of a
stimuli, e.g. steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP). In many
applications the Welch method is used with standard set-ups for
window lengths and number of averaged spectra/spectrograms. This paper optimizes the
window lengths and number of windows of the Welch method and compare
the calculated mean squared error for this method with the optimal parameter choices of other more
recent, socalled, multiple window or multitaper methods. The results
could be useful in the choice of more optimal window functions for
spectrogram estimation in certain applications. Some examples of spectrogram estimation of
SSVEP are shown.
