Interpretable EEG Microstate Discovery via Variational Deep Embedding: A Systematic Architecture Search with Multi-Quadrant Evaluation

New method uses variational deep embedding to analyze EEG microstates

Researchers propose a variational deep embedding approach to discover interpretable EEG microstates. Traditional methods like Modified K-Means lack generative models and latent representations. This framework introduces a decoder to reconstruct scalp topographies from learned latent states, improving interpretability and functional brain state analysis.
