Overview

What is OpenMEEG?

• The OpenMEEG software is developed within the Athena project-team at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis.

• It was initiated in 2006 by the Odyssee Project Team (INRIA/ENPC/ENS Ulm).

• OpenMEEG solves forward problems related to Magneto- and Electro-encephalography (MEG and EEG).

• The forward problem uses the symmetric Boundary Element Method (symmetric BEM), providing excellent accuracy (see Publications).

Using OpenMEEG

• From Matlab using Brainstorm or FieldTrip

• For general lead fields computation (EEG, MEG, EIT, Internal potential):

  • From Python

  • From a Bash script on Unix systems (Linux/Mac).

  • From a BAT file on Windows.
