title: Multiple current dipole estimation using simulated annealing.
abstract: A method for estimating electrical current distribution in the human brain using a multiple current dipole model is presented. A cost function for estimating multiple dipoles is proposed and a simulated annealing algorithm is used to obtain an acceptable solution. Computer simulation is used to evaluate the effectiveness of this method.
