Abstract:
Scalp Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the most popular noninvasive modalities for studying real-time neural phenomena. While traditional EEG studies have focused on identifying group-level statistical effects, the rise of machine learning has prompted a shift in computational neuroscience towards spatio-temporal predictive analyses. We introduce a novel open-source viewer, the EEG Prediction Visualizer (EPViz), to aid researchers in developing, validating, and reporting their predictive modeling outputs. EPViz is a lightweight and standalone software package developed in Python. Beyond viewing and manipulating the EEG data, EPViz allows researchers to load a PyTorch deep learning model, apply it to EEG features, and overlay the output channel-wise or subject-level temporal predictions on top of the original time series. These results can be saved as high-resolution images for use in manuscripts and presentations. EPViz also provides valuable tools for clinician-scientists, including spectrum visualization, computation of basic data statistics, and annotation editing. Finally, we have included a built-in EDF anonymization module to facilitate sharing of clinical data. Taken together, EPViz fills a much needed gap in EEG visualization. Our user-friendly interface and rich collection of features may also help to promote collaboration between engineers and clinicians.
