Abstract
Reliable individual-level measures of neural activity are essential for capturing interindividual variability in brain activity recorded by magnetoencephalography (MEG). While conventional group-level analyses highlight shared features in the data, individual-level specificity is often lost. Current methods for assessing reproducibility of brain responses focus on group-level statistics and neglect subject-specific temporal and spatial characteristics. This study proposes a combined ICA algorithm (comICA), aimed at extracting within-individual consistent MEG evoked responses. The proposed hypotheses behind comICA are based on the temporal profiles of the evoked responses, the corresponding spatial information, as well as independence and linearity. ComICA is presented and tested against simulated data and test–retest recordings of a high-level cognitive task (picture naming). The results show high reliability in extracting the shared activations in the simulations (success rate >93%) and the ability to successfully reproduce group-level results on reproducibility for the test–retest MEG recordings. Our model offers means for noise reduction, targeted extraction of specific activation components in experimental designs, and potential integration across different recordings.Description
