| Course Description | IMPORTANT!!!! The content of this NTU COOL site will be synched with that Brain Data Analysis Methods GIBMS 7021, as both courses are involved in the Brainhack school 2026. If you miss this, we will send subsequent email communication to setup another date to conduct a sub-orientation. We will be updating this as the semester progresses so always check this page. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *****!!!!This course will be conducted in a form of a Hackathon!!!!**** This year, this course focuses on advanced data preprocessing and analytical techniques for human brain neurophysiological data including electroencephalography/event-related potentials (EEG/ERP), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and structural/functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These include using Python to analyze brain data, latest conventions and practices in the field, latest advanced approaches in the field such as functional connectivity, data-mining, modeling, etc. This will be a good platform for those in data analytics interested in working with cognitive neuroscience data, and those in cognitive neurosciences seeking to learn data analytic tools. The course will be conducted in conjunction with BrainHack School (https://school.brainhackmtl.org/). We will use a format that combines self-study via online modules and Teaching Assistant (TA) advising. TAs will be from local (Taiwan) as well as international locations (as listed in the BrainHack School website), who come with various interdisciplinary perspectives. Course students will explore relevant topics in interaction with TAs from various backgrounds in order to conduct a practical project. Student project topics will be determined jointly with the TAs who will provide advice on what are feasible/meaningful goals. We are highly flexible on project topics as long as they are geared to either let students learn new techniques or to complete a real scientific research analysis of extant data within the course time frame. Students will need to submit a project report in the form of a webpage and a recorded video presentation, which will be the basis of the course grade. We are in the midst of coordinating TA, module, website details. The above BrainHack School url is from previous years as an example. This NTU COOL syllabus will be regularly updated as more information becomes available. Be sure to check in every few days. Those who wish to register but have conflict in schedule can try 神經語言學專題研究 Neurolinguistics Seminar (LING7430)[https://cool.ntu.edu.tw/courses/22938] or email the course Teachers. |
| Course Objective | (A) To learn advanced data preprocessing and analytical techniques for working with human brain neurophysiological data including electroencephalography/event-related potentials (EEG/ERP), structural/functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). (B) To try out techniques in a practical application project. |
| Course Requirement | We have no hard restrictions, but backgrounds in cognitive neuroscience and coding are strongly recommended. Alternatively, you must have a strong independent motivational capacity to self-learn and acquire the necessary sufficent background to conduct a simple relevant project. |
