I’m not familiar with this type of topographic map and don’t know how to interpret it. I would like to generate maps of the type in the tutorials which I’m familiar with, which look like this:
That’s some very artistic maps
Could you share a complete code snippet all the way to the plot and the data file that is causing these plots?
I suspect a scaling issue on the electrode location (montage) which then messes up the interpolation on the maps.
How can I also upload the data? I can tell you where it’s from, which is here: https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds003825/versions/1.2.0
If you navigate to derivatives/eeglab then you have a collection of .set and .fdt files. My example uses the first one.
So, it’s a bit difficult to reproduce because those files tend to crash my interpreter for some reason… especially when trying to plot the raw time-series. But anyway, it is a scaling issue of the montage (the electrode location).
When loading the file, you are greeted with:
RuntimeWarning: Estimated head radius (0.2 cm) is below the 3rd percentile for infant head size. Check if the montage_units argument is correct (the default is “mm”, but your channel positions may be in different units).
And indeed, here is the loaded montage compared to the default head:
