NeuroAnalyzer roadmap

Number of ! characters indicate priority. Items that are still considered are marked with ? character.

General

! add general GUI for importing/processing/analyzing (nalab())
!!! support for NeuroAnalyzer.STUDY object
? separate plot_*() into plot_*_cont() and plot_epoch_*()
! update tutorials
! better documentation
!! better code comments
? replace Gtk.jl with Gtk4.jl
! more performance optimizations
! distributed computing for pipelines
!! improve support for MEG data
! improve support for ECoG data
! improve support for NIRS data
! support for IEEG data
! support for SEEG data
! use eyetracker to detect eye movement and blink artifacts
? use 3D scanner for head mesh, e.g. Polhemus
? use 3D tracker for electrode locations, e.g. Polhemus
? organize data using BIDS standard – should this be internal or external?
! NeuroStim: TES modeling
! NeuroStim: removal of TES artifacts from EEG
? NeuroStim: transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS)
? NeuroStim: transcranial infrared laser stimulation (TILS)
! NeuroTester: visual / auditory stimuli presentation module (via Raspberry Pi)
? AMD ROCm / Intel Arc / Apple Metal acceleration
! NIRS: add channels locations in the middle of optodes
! NIRS: head plot in topoplot
! more interpolation methods

! better auto-detection of file format
! more import formats
! NWB:
- check .TSV naming scheme
- check .JSON naming scheme
- check how mixed (EEG/IEEG/SEEG) recording is handled
- check STIMULI vs EVENTS

!!! reference_custom() should calculate position of channels and add them to locs
! automated cleaning of artifacts
! REST referencing
! multitaper: generate frequency-band-selective tapers to increase sensitivity, varying the length of time segments, varying the number of tapers and central frequency of the spectral representation of the tapers

!! add more estimators to entropy() and mutual_information() (see https://github.com/Tchanders/InformationMeasures.jl)
! ierp() – based on ERPLAB
! wavelet-based coherence
? reports in .md format (use Pandoc to convert to HTML/ODT/DOCX/PDF)
! amplitude turbulence
? ANOVA test for segments
! CDR: current density reconstruction (GCDR, CDR spectrum), activity within specified band
! frequency bands: medial vs left vs right channels within each band
? compare components
? correlations between components
! source localization
- dipoles
- beamforming, leakage correction
! FOOOF
! import and process MRI data for EEG source localization
!! connectivity:
- neural Granger causality (NGC)
- phase synchronization measurements: weighted PLI, phase coherence (PC), imaginary component of coherency (IC)
- cross-frequency phase-amplitude coupling
- phase-amplitude cross-frequency coupling (PAC)
- power envelope connectivity
! probability maps: the local likelihood of belonging to a given population
! signals/PSD comparison
! tensor and other statistical maps (magnitude and direction, probabilistic regions, regions of high vs low variability)
! support for clusterDepth.jl
! support for Unfold.jl/UnfoldMakie.jl
