Petra Bíró provides a mapping of optode and electrode locations to hemispheres and likely cortical regions. The dataset, last updated in May 2026, includes positions AF7, AF8, F5, and F6, with cortical regions estimated using the fOLD toolbox v2.2 and the Brodmann atlas. Positions AFp3, AFp4, AFF3h, and AFF4h were assigned based on spatial proximity to neighboring electrodes.
Use Cases
- Validate or plan electrode placement for EEG or fNIRS studies based on the provided anatomical mappings.
- Cross-reference recorded brain signals with likely cortical regions based on the estimated Brodmann areas.
- Analyze spatial coverage of sensor arrays based on the listed electrode and optode locations.
Strengths
- Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
- Cortical region estimates are derived using a specific, cited tool (fOLD toolbox v2.2) and atlas (Brodmann).
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- The dataset is very small (5.5 KB), indicating limited scope.
