In case you need to visualize your time series in both time and frequency domain (or just frequency domain), you can use the wt (wavelet transform) function in the Cross Wavelet and Wavelet Coherence toolbox by Grinsted et al. I often find the color
Sometimes you wish to know the spectrum of a time series. plotFFT is a handy function for this purpose. You instantly know the power of the signal at each frequency. Here is an example on how to use this function: figure; plotFFT(randn(1,1000)); Sour
Often you need to view the spatial pattern of activation as in the example below. plotTopoMap allows you to do that. It probably only works for Hitachi devices where the spatial relationship between channels are known. In the above example, the activ
You often need to plot the time series of NIRS signal from all channels with event indicators (See the example below). plotTraces can do that easily. In the above example, time series of all 24 channels are plotted. The number on the y-axis indicates
If you want to control ETG-4000 with your program through the serial port, and at the same time your experiment requires realtime feedback from the ETG4000, you can either merge the RealtimeOT script and your presentation script (which will be very c
Hitachi provides a Matlab script (RealtimeOT.m) which can deliver real-time feedback from ETG-4000. This script is installed in the computer (Windows 2000) in the NIRS room. One can modify the script to deliver the real-time signal in the desired for
To synchronize NIRS recording and your stimuli (visual, auditory, button press etc), your presentation program needs to talk to the NIRS machine. Hitachi ETG4000 allows serial communication between the NIRS machine and an external computer. You can u
Both are on NIRS (Near Infrared Spectroscopy). The first one is on how to detect NIRS activity earlier using multivariate (SVM) method; the 2nd one is a comprehensive comparison between NIRS and fMRI. Cui, Bray, Reiss (2010) Speeded Near Infrared Spe
1. plotTraces, plot a time series, or multiple time series on one plot, with vertical lines indicating the markers (events). Can be used for data quality check and global signal detection. 2. plotTopoMap, plot a map of activation. 3. plot2, scatter p
