Lossless Quality Control Procedure: Glossary

The input for running the QC script is *_ll.set files.

The QC procedure is a manual review of the decsions the pipeline made. The annontations in the component EEG data scroll can be edited to update decisions about the data.

The output is *_qcr.set* files which contain the updated annotation information.

The goal of the QC procedure is to remove artefacts from the data through marking components and time periods for removal.

Left-clicking toggles the highlight tool

Right-clicking over a component toggles the manual mark

Pressing the ‘m’ key over a highlighted time period will add the manual mark

Pressing [shift + m] over a highlighted time period will remove the manual mark

Pressing the ‘a’ key will mark a component ambiguous

The overlay can be turned on and off by pressing ‘o’ and updated by pressing ‘u’

Establishing an approach that allows for reliably identify artefacts based on as few subjective factors as possible.

The *_qcr.set file will contain the updated annotations and is ready for further processing such as segmentation.)
