Alpha excess selection gave more test window excess than alpha power selection in 19 SEEG records with an average reference

We compared contact selection by total alpha power with selection by alpha excess above a local spectral background. We used 19 public SEEG records from OpenNeuro ds003876 version 1.0.2 and 2,070 good contacts. We used an average reference. Each rule selected the top 10 percent of contacts in one minute. We tested those contacts in the next minute. Mean contact overlap was 32.1 percent. Excess selection gave 1.435 dB more test excess. The patient bootstrap 95 percent interval was 0.978 to 1.906 dB. The difference was positive in 18 of 19 patients. All planned sensitivity checks gave positive means. The package preserves new spectra, source versions, verified range hashes, code, results, and a raw numerical fixture. Alpha excess is a local spectral measure. It does not prove a neural oscillation. The evidence concerns short interictal records from epilepsy patients.
