EEGLAB Resource Report Resource Website 5000+ mentions |
EEGLAB (RRID:SCR_007292) | EEGLAB | software application, data processing software, software resource, software toolkit | Interactive Matlab toolbox for processing continuous and event-related EEG, MEG and other electrophysiological data incorporating independent component analysis (ICA), time/frequency analysis, artifact rejection, event-related statistics, and several useful modes of visualization of the averaged and single-trial data. First developed on Matlab 5.3 under Linux, EEGLAB runs on Matlab v5 and higher under Linux, Unix, Windows, and Mac OS X (Matlab 7+ recommended). EEGLAB provides an interactive graphic user interface (GUI) allowing users to flexibly and interactively process their high-density EEG and other dynamic brain data using independent component analysis (ICA) and/or time/frequency analysis (TFA), as well as standard averaging methods. EEGLAB also incorporates extensive tutorial and help windows, plus a command history function that eases users'' transition from GUI-based data exploration to building and running batch or custom data analysis scripts. EEGLAB offers a wealth of methods for visualizing and modeling event-related brain dynamics, both at the level of individual EEGLAB ''datasets'' and/or across a collection of datasets brought together in an EEGLAB ''studyset.'' For experienced Matlab users, EEGLAB offers a structured programming environment for storing, accessing, measuring, manipulating and visualizing event-related EEG data. For creative research programmers and methods developers, EEGLAB offers an extensible, open-source platform through which they can share new methods with the world research community by publishing EEGLAB ''plug-in'' functions that appear automatically in the EEGLAB menu of users who download them. For example, novel EEGLAB plug-ins might be built and released to ''pick peaks'' in ERP or time/frequency results, or to perform specialized import/export, data visualization, or inverse source modeling of EEG, MEG, and/or ECOG data. EEGLAB Features * Graphic user interface * Multiformat data importing * High-density data scrolling * Defined EEG data structure * Open source plug-in facility * Interactive plotting functions * Semi-automated artifact removal * ICA & time/frequency transforms * Many advanced plug-in toolboxes * Event & channel location handling * Forward/inverse head/source modeling | visualization, eeg modeling, independent component analysis, meg modeling, eeg, erp, spectral decomposition, single-trial, matlab, meg, electrophysiology, format conversion, source separation analysis, fourier time-domain analysis, spectral analysis, temporal wavelet analysis, anova, event related potential, three dimensional display, two dimensional display |

V3D Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
V3D (RRID:SCR_008646) | V3D | data visualization software, software application, data processing software, d visualization software, software resource, segmentation software, image analysis software | V3D is a handy, fast, and versatile 3D/4D/5D Image Visualization & Analysis System for Bioimages & Surface Objects. It also provides many unique functions, is Open Source, supports a very simple and powerful plugin interface and thus can be extended & enhanced easily. V3D-Neuron is a powerful 3D neuron reconstruction, visualization, and editing software built on top of V3D. Both V3D and V3D-Neuron have recently been published in Nature Biotechnology (April, 2010), and Highlighted in Nature Methods (May, 2010), and Science News (April, 2010), etc. V3D is a cross-platform (Mac, Linux, and Windows) tool for visualizing large-scale (gigabytes, and 64-bit data) 3D image stacks and various surface data. It is also a container of powerful modules for 3D image analysis (cell segmentation, neuron tracing, brain registration, annotation, quantitative measurement and statistics, etc) and data management. This makes V3D suitable for various bioimage informatics applications, and a nice platform to develop new 3D image analysis algorithms for high-throughput processing. In short, V3D streamlines the workflow of visualization-assisted analysis. In the latest V3D development, it can render 5D (spatial-temporal) data directly in 3D volume-rendering mode; it supports convenient and interactive local and global 3D views at different scales. It even has a Matlab file IO toolbox. A user can now write his/her own plugins to take advantage of the V3D platform very easily. | 3d, annotation, bioimage, brain, cell, development, informatics, neuron, registration, segmentation, software, tracing, visual, visualization, image |
