Pulse variance correction replaced 6.3 percent of top 20 percent energy edges on average in SEEG data from five patients with ten pulses per site

We asked whether subtraction of energy before stimulation removes the variance term caused by a small pulse count. We used OpenNeuro ds004457 version 1.0.2. The fixed sample had five patients, eight SEEG contacts per patient, ten pulses per site, and 1,081 edges outside stimulation shafts. A correction based on products between different pulses replaced 6.30 percent of top 20 percent energy edges on average across patients. Patient values ranged from 0 to 20.51 percent. Mean patient median rank agreement between disjoint halves with five pulses fell from 0.601 to 0.495. Removing each window's mean reduced replacement to 1.41 percent. We proved exact pulse subset identities and preserved code, data windows, source hashes, results, and repeat instructions. All 3,477,760 saved bins matched raw source samples. An unbiased energy estimate requires a common mean response and zero mean errors with no covariance between different pulses. This narrow sample does not establish clinical benefit or true neural connections.

    We used the five patient pulse window files, selected contact metadata, event metadata, raw source hashes, and extraction code. These inputs fixed the sample and enabled a new audit of response energy and ranks.
