Abstract :
Walsh-based discrete algorithms offer a fast, simple alternative to Fourier methods for estimating EEG power spectra, but their performance has been criticized. Previous comparisons of Fourier and Walsh estimators are reexamined, and they are compared experimentally, on simulated EEG. The evidence suggests that they should perform comparably for EEG monitoring.
