Ant Colony System Optimization for Spatiotemporal Modelling of Combined EEG and MEG Data
EEG/MEG source localization involves the estimation of neural activity inside the brain volume that underlies the EEG/MEG measures observed at the sensor array. In this paper, we consider a Bayesian finite spatial mixture model for source reconstruction and implement Ant Colony System (ACS) optimization coupled with Iterated Conditional Modes (ICM) for computing estimates of the neural source activity. Our approach is evaluated using simulation studies and a real data application in which we implement a nonparametric bootstrap for interval estimation. We demonstrate improved performance of the ACS-ICM algorithm as compared to existing methodology for the same spatio-temporal model.
