Title: Brain imaging with magneto/electro-encephalography: from source localization to connectivity estimation
Abstract: Electroencephalography and Magnetoencephalography (EEG/MEG) are two powerful techniques recording signals from the brain at a one-millisecond resolution. EEG/MEG data are very rich in information and are currently used in many contexts, ranging from basic neuroscience to clinical applications. In this talk I will consider two intertwined problems related to the analysis of EEG/MEG data: (1) the source localization problem, amounting to estimating the neural currents underlying recorded time series; (2) the connectivity estimation problem, amounting to characterizing the interactions between spatially distinct areas.
Bio: Alberto Sorrentino is Associate Professor of Numerical Analysis at the Mathematics Department (DIMA) of the University of Genoa, Italy, and CEO of Bayesian Estimation for Engineering Solutions, a startup recently founded as a University spinoff. His research is focused on the development of Bayesian approaches and Monte Carlo methods, with application in neuroimaging and air quality monitoring.
