  • Abstract
    The problem of locating the position of the source of evoked potentials from measurements on the surface of the scalp has been examined. It is shown that the position of the source in a head modeled by a sphere surrounded by two concentric shells of differing conductivities representing the skull and the scalp can be inferred from source localization calculations made on a homogeneous model.
