brainaccess.connect.processor.get_signal_quality(x: ndarray) → ndarray

Calculate signal quality for each channel in the data This function estimates the EEG signal quality for each channel based on amplitude variation and 50/60Hz noise level. The supplied data should be unprocessed of 2-3 seconds length. If signals do not pass the quality measures of this function, then it means that they are really corrupted or the electrodes are not fitted. Eye or muscle artifacts are not evaluated by this function, signals containing theses should still pass the quality measures.

Parameters:

x (np.ndarray) – data array, shape (channels, time)

Returns:

signal quality for each channel in the same order as x * 0 - signal is bad and did not pass any quality measure * 1 - signal passed amplitude related quality measures * 2 - signal also do not contain significant amounts of 50/60Hz noise
