Sleep Analysis with High Density EEG

Tutorial for analyzing data by the Huber Sleep Lab

Welcome to our comprehensive guide to high-density EEG sleep analysis!

Quick Start

This series of instructions provides you with everything you need to do to get from raw EEG data to a topoplot showing a statistically significant increase in slow wave activity following sleep deprivation. Data will have to be provided directly by Huber Sleep Lab members (regarding this experiment). Otherwise, you can adapt the pipeline to your own data.

Important tools you definitely should know first

  1. Git (By Niklas S.)
  2. MATLAB (By Sophia S.)
  3. Proper MATLAB, i.e. how to actually write nice code (By Sophia S.)

How to build a topoplot

  1. Info about the data (Sophia S.)
  2. EEG recording parameters & referencing (By Melanie F.)
  3. Filtering & downsampling (By Sven L.)
  4. Artifacts & artifact rejection (By Sven L.)
  5. Power analysis (By Jelena S.)
  6. Topographies (By Niklas S.)
