Resumen:
We propose modifications to the AutomaticRelevance Determination (ARD) algorithm for solving theEEG/MEG inverse problem when the activation map of thecortex is known to be sparse. We propose to include a term toaccount for the background noise activity, i.e. electric activityof sources not in the cortex. Also, we prune the results ofthe ARD algorithm using a Model Selection criterion to getsparser results. Simulations with a realistic head model show avery important reduction of the number of sources incorrectlydetected as active.
