5. Traditional dipole methods are described and some very recent processing techniques such as blind source separation are briefly reviewed. In Chapter 6, the concepts developed for the analysis and description of EEG sleep recordings are summarized and the important parameters and terminologies are explained. Finally, in Chapter 7, one of the most important applications of the developed mathematical tools for processing of EEG signals, namely brain–computer interfacing, is explored and recent advancements are briefly explained. Results of the application of these algorithms are described.

      In the treatment of various topics covered within this research monograph it is assumed that the reader has a background in the fundamentals of digital signal processing and wishes to focus on processing of EEGs. It is hoped that the concepts covered in each chapter provide a foundation for future research and development in the field.

      In conclusion, we do wish to stress that in this book there is no attempt to challenge previous clinical or diagnostic knowledge. Instead, the tools and algorithms described in this book can, we believe, potentially enhance the significant clinically related information within EEG signals and thereby aid physicians and ultimately provide more cost effective and efficient diagnostic tools.

      Both authors wish to thank most sincerely our previous and current PhD students who have contributed so much to the material in this work and our understanding of the field. Special thanks to Min Jing, Tracey Lee, Kianoush Nazarpour, Leor Shoker, Loukianous Spyrou, and Wenwu Wang, who contributed to providing some of the illustrations. Finally, this book became truly possible due to spiritual support and encouragement of Maryam Zahabsaniei, Erfan Sanei, and Ideen Sanei.
