Advanced forward models for EEG source reconstruction

EEG source reconstruction techniques try to reconstruct the generating sources of electrical activity measured on the scalp. In order to do so, a forward model is required. Such a model is characterized by a volume conductor model of the head and a corresponding source space. The volume conductor model reflects the geometrical and electromagnetic properties of the head while the source space constricts the solution space in order to be able to reconstruct the generating sources. We are developing techniques to improve the accuracy of the reconstructed activity using MRI based subject specific finite difference forward models.
