Abstract:
|
Granger causality (GC) is a statistical technique used to estimate temporal associations in multivariate time series. Many applications and extensions of GC have been proposed since its formulation by Granger in 1969. Here we consider an extension to control for potentially mediating or confounding signals, called conditional GC, in the context of electrocorticographic (ECoG) signals. A pruning approach to reduce the required number of estimations is proposed. Finally, we consider the potential of conditional GC applied to independent components as a method to explore temporal relationships between underlying source signals. Applications to simulated and real ECoG signals are presented.
