Median Welch spectra gave smaller mean file differences for 30–80 Hz exponents in paired 60 s bipolar SEEG records from 36 patients, with 55–65 Hz removed

We compared mean and median Welch spectra from the same windows in public SEEG data. We used two 60 s interictal files for each of 36 patients in OpenNeuro ds004100, version 1.1.3. The primary test used 3,686 named adjacent bipolar pairs. We fitted 30–80 Hz exponents and removed 55–65 Hz. Each patient score was the median absolute exponent difference between files. The mean patient score was 0.1734 with mean spectra and 0.1606 with median spectra. The mean gain was 0.0128 exponent units, or 7.38 percent. The 95 percent patient bootstrap interval was 0.0044 to 0.0218 units. This interval assumes independent and exchangeable patients. Median spectra gave smaller scores in 22 patients and larger scores in 14 patients. The exact sign test gave p=0.243. The 30 s bipolar half check did not show the same gain. Two band checks also had intervals that included zero. Lower observed differences do not establish greater accuracy. This reused-cohort study adds full 20–100 Hz median spectra, patient and pair results, and a fixed estimator comparison. The package preserves code, source versions and hashes, plans, checks, figures, and reproduction instructions.

    This publication defined the patient cohort and retained contact selection. We used that selection through publication a1f0070b-0231-4e28-a5aa-f96ad3bede75. We made no new patient selection and did not repeat all original selection decisions.

    We used the fixed 36-patient cohort, contact lists, compact spectra, source records, and MIT retrieval and slope code. We rebuilt all 72 raw prefixes and checked their spectra against this source. The new analysis compares mean and median file differences and adds full 20–100 Hz median spectra.
