A Full-wave Solution of Deep Sources in the Lossy Human Head to Accurate Electroencephalography and Magnetoencephalography
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction: Currents in the brain flow inside neurons and across their boundaries into the extracellular medium, create electric and magnetic fields. These fields, which contain suitable information on brain activity, can be measured by electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and direct neural imaging. Methods: In this paper, we employed an electromagnetic model of the neuron activity and human head to derive electric and magnetic fields (brain waves) using a full-wave approach (ie. without any approximation). Currently, the brain waves are only derived using the quasi-static approximation (QSA) of Maxwell's equations in electromagnetic theory. Results: As a result, source localization in brain imaging will produce some errors. So far, the error rate of the QSA on the output results of electric and magnetic fields has not been investigated. This issue has become more noticeable due to the increased sensitivity of modern electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) devices. This work introduces issues that QSA encounters in this problem and reveals the necessity of a full-wave solution. Then, a full-wave solution of the problem in closed-form format is presented for the first time. This solution is done in two scenarios: the source (active neurons) is in the center of a sphere, and when the source is out of the center but deeply inside the sphere. The first scenario is simpler, but the second one is much more complicated and is solved using a partial-wave series expression. Conclusion: One of the significant achievements of this model is improving the interpretation of EEG and MEG measurements, resulting in more accurate source localization.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
