rMEA

The goal of rMEA is to provide a suite of tools useful to read, visualize and export bivariate Motion Energy time-series. Lagged synchrony between subjects can be analyzed through windowed cross-correlation. Surrogate data generation allows an estimation of pseudosynchrony that helps to estimate the effect size of the observed synchronization.

Example

This example shows a complete analysis pipeline consisting on Motion Energy time-series import, pre-processing, cross-correlation analysis and comparison between groups against pseudosynchrony.
