GIRALDO-SUAREZ, Eduardo; PADILLA-BURITICA, Jorge I.  e  CASTELLANOS-DOMINGUEZ, César G.. Dynamic Inverse Problem Solution Using a Kalman Filter Smoother for Neuronal Activity Estimation. TecnoL. [online]. 2011, n.27, pp.33-51. ISSN 0123-7799.

This article presents an estimation method of neuronal activity into the brain using a Kalman smoother approach that takes into account in the solution of the inverse problem the dynamic variability of the time series. This method is applied over a realistic head model calculated with the boundary element method. A comparative analysis for the dynamic estimation methods is made up from simulated EEG signals for several noise conditions. The solution of the inverse problem is achieved by using high performance computing techniques and an evaluation of the computational cost is performed for each method. As a result, the Kalman smoother approach presents better performance in the estimation task than the regularized static solution, and the direct Kalman filter.
