A practical guide to applying machine learning to infant EEG data.

ABSTRACT: Electroencephalography (EEG) has been widely adopted by the developmental cognitive neuroscience community, but the application of machine learning (ML) in this domain lags behind adult EEG studies. Applying ML to infant data is particularly challenging due to the low number of trials, low signal-to-noise ratio, high inter-subject variability, and high inter-trial variability. Here, we provide a step-by-step tutorial on how to apply ML to classify cognitive states in infants. We describe the type of brain attributes that are widely used for EEG classification and also introduce a Riemannian geometry based approach for deriving connectivity estimates that account for inter-trial and inter-subject variability. We present pipelines for learning classifiers using trials from a single infant an
