Academic Software Applications for
Electromagnetic Brain Mapping Using MEG and EEG
To be published in : Computational Intelligence and
Neuroscience (indexed in MEDLINE, INSPEC, GoogleScholar, etc.)
Full Call for Paper available at: http://www.hindawi.com/journals/cin/osi.html
The field of
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) and Electroencephalography (EEG) source imaging is
maturing rapidly. This scientific growth is accompanied by a variety of
complementary and /or concurrent software solutions from the academic world.
The objective of this
CIN Special Issue is to help the neuroimaging obtain an overview of
state-of-the-art academic software applications for MEG/EEG data analysis, how
they differ and interact, and of upcoming methodological trends and technical
developments; the topics to be covered include, but are not limited to,
academic software solutions for:
·
MEG
and EEG data acquisition
·
Data
preprocessing, that is, filtering, artifact detection, rejection or correction,
trial sorting, averaging
·
Segmentation
and geometrical modeling of head tissues
·
Computational
electromagnetics for MEG/EEG forward modeling
·
MEG/EEG
source analysis
·
Statistical
appraisal and inference: confidence intervals on measures and hypothesis
testing
·
Identification
and evaluation of evoked, induced event-related brain responses and ongoing
brain activity
·
Time-frequency
decompositions, advanced spectral analysis, time series modeling
·
Estimation
of functional and effective connectivity
Authors should provide
detailed information regarding their software toolbox or application by
addressing the following topics: open source software (yes/no), i/o file
formats available, operating system, Matlab required (yes/no), interoperability
with other software, and so forth.
Further, the software
needs to be available for download free of charge at the time of manuscript
submission, with sufficient documentation provided online to be able to
reproduce the data analysis featured in the manuscript.
Before submission
authors should carefully read over the journal's Author Guidelines, which are
located at http://www.hindawi.com/journals/cin/guidelines.html.
Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete
manuscript through the journal Manuscript Tracking System at http://mts.hindawi.com/ according to the following timetable:
|
Manuscript Due |
October 1, 2010 |
|
First Round of Reviews |
December 1, 2010 |
|
Publication Date |
March 1, 2011 |
Ps:
As an open access journal, Computational
Intelligence and Neuroscience requires an Article Processing Charge of $750 USD
per accepted manuscript for both research and review articles.
Since the journal does not collect any subscription
or advertising revenue, and does not have other funding streams, these charges
are necessary in order to make the full text of all published articles freely
available online. Moreover, authors are allowed to retain the copyright of
their work published in the journal.
As for the number of color figures, there is no
limited number of figures that might be included in each paper whether colored
or not and you can find detailed information about the general format of
Manuscripts that will be submitted to the Special Issue proposals, the format
of references, tables and figures if found at: http://www.hindawi.com/journals/cin/guidelines.html.
