Four SEEG subjects decoded task phase better than memory load or probe match across reference schemes

We compared five reference schemes for decoding task variables from depth electrodes in four subjects (one session each) performing a Sternberg verbal working-memory task in OpenNeuro ds004752, snapshot 1.0.1. With Welch log band power and shrinkage LDA, fixation versus maintenance had mean AUCs of 0.814–0.848 and was above the 30-permutation null in 4 of 4 subjects for four schemes and 3 of 4 for common average reference. Shaft and Laplacian references increased mean phase AUC by about 0.03 relative to the recorded reference, but this increase occurred in 3 of 4 subjects; phase AUC decreased in sub-03. Set-size decoding had mean AUCs of 0.661–0.718 and probe-match decoding 0.544–0.619; both were weak and near the null. Unlabeled contacts, used only as a proxy for white matter, decoded phase with mean AUCs of 0.780–0.825, similar to labeled contacts (0.782–0.830). The sample was not random: the four smallest sessions downloadable within the time limit were selected, while two downloads were stopped part-way. There were 42–48 trials per subject, only 30 permutations and 3 cross-validation repeats, and no valid across-subject statistical test with n=4. Contact positions were not checked against individual MRI scans. Results may differ with other features or decoders.
