A periodogram-based method for the detection of steady-state visually evoked potentialsA periodogram-based method for the detection of steady-state visually evoked potentials Peer-Reviewed Journal Publication Δημοσίευση σε Περιοδικό με Κριτές 2015-11-081998enThe task of objective perimetry is to scan the visual field and find an answer about the function of the visual system. Flicker-burst stimulation--a physiological sensible combination of transient and steady-state stimulation--is used to generate deterministic sinusoidal responses or visually evoked potentials (VEP's) at the visual cortex, which are derived from the electroencephalogram by a suitable electrode array. In this paper we develop a new method for the detection of VEP's. Based on the periodogram of a time-series, we test the data for the presence of hidden periodic components, which correspond to steady-state VEP's. The method is applied successfully to real datahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/IEEE Transactions Biomedical Engineering 245242–248 Liavas Athanasios Λιαβας Αθανασιος Moustakides, George V Henning ,G Psarakis,E Husar ,P Visual system visual pathways visual system
