Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| O1: Understanding the influence of previously applied stimulation patterns onto the current motor performance. O2: Detection and characterization of novel, potentially multivariate, neural markers. O3: Investigation of neural markers derived from electrocorticogram signals. O4: Characterization of alternative stimulation strategies. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| O2: Detection and characterization of novel, potentially multivariate, neural markers for decoding of motor peformance. End-point: average performance difference (in r-values) between the subject-specific decoding models that incorporate EEG features and the STN LFPs model | — |
