Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and an arrangement for increasing the signal-to-noise ratio at evoked and event-related potentials in the derivatives of a neuronal activity, for example of the brain.
- Evoked and event-related potentials indicate potential differences or waveforms in the electroencephalogram (EEG), which are triggered either by stimulation of a sensory organ or a peripheral nerve, or with cognitive processes, such as
- EKPs in the EEG have a very small amplitude of a few ⁇ . Therefore, the EKPs in event-independent
- the measured EEG signals must be evaluated by means of signal analysis methods.
- the spontaneous EEG is considered as a stochastic interference signal, that of the stimulus or the cognitive Process independent and whose mean is zero.
- the EKPs of interest are temporally coupled to the stimulus or the cognitive process. After each stimulus or cognitive process, the EKP shows almost the same course.
- the independent activity tends to zero as the ECP accumulates.
- the number of realizations required in practice depends on the signal-to-noise ratio and is dependent on the sense modality and physical characteristics
- Vibration levels time-frequency analysis, wavelet analysis, in synchronization or in coherence over the

- Single sweeps are individual responses to, for example, an auditory burst stimulus, where N is the number of the sweep
- FIG. 1 shows a single sweep arranged in a matrix.
- the trace of the dominant Nl and P2 wave of this potential can be clearly seen.
- Information about latency and amplitude variations may be in contrast to the averaged potential from the single sweep matrix

- Adjustment of hearing aids are used.
- published patent application DE 10 2009 060 093 A1 discloses a method and an arrangement for automatic, recursive Adaptation of a hearing aid worn by a person.
- the arrangement comprises a stimuli generator unit, which emits an acoustic stimulus to the hearing aid, and a stimuli generator unit, which emits an acoustic stimulus to the hearing aid, and a stimuli generator unit, which emits an acoustic stimulus to the hearing aid, and a
- Signal acquisition unit with a sensor that detects neural activity of the brain due to the acoustic stimulus
- the arrangement further comprises a computing and control unit, which is a measure of the listening effort from the
- Hearing aid control unit that changes the hearing aid parameters.
- the computing and control unit repeatedly causes the
- Stimuli generator unit for dispensing a hearing stimulus and the hearing aid control unit for changing a hearing aid parameter until the amount of hearing effort falls below a predefinable threshold value.
- Reverse transformation in the time domain changed so that the circular variance along at least one phase trace is reduced in the 2D single sweep matrix.
- the invention claims a method for increasing the signal-to-noise ratio of evoked potential signals and event-related potential signals of neural activity.
- the method comprises the following steps:
- Potential signals of neural activity is significantly improved.
- the method after the transformation comprises the following steps:
- the method after the change of the instantaneous phases comprises the following step:
- Merging or combining with absolute values are in complex signal processing synonyms for the formation of a complex signal (an analytic signal) of magnitude and phase
- the method has the following additional step:
- phase-regularized single sweep signals into a resulting evoked potential signal or a resulting event-related potential signal.
- an isotropic anisotropic smoothing, regularization or filtering of the magnitude values takes place.
- the change of the instantaneous phases is effected by an isotropic or anisotropic
- the N individual sweep signals can be predefined, systematically divided, split and split back-transformed and the coherence or
- Correlation of the split-determined phase-regulated single sweep signals is determined. In a further training, it is in the
- the invention also claims a digital storage medium having electronically readable control signals which can cooperate with a programmable computer or digital signal processor such that the method according to the invention is carried out.
- the invention also claims a computer program
- Program code means for performing all method steps according to the method of the invention when the program is executed on a computer or a digital signal processor.

- FFT Fast Fourier Transformation
- step 102 a frequency band of interest is extracted and the difference spectrum for each line
- the frequency band of interest is subtracted from the original spectrum.
