To access the node menu, simply double-click anywhere within the application window or press the 'Tab' key. The node menu allows you to add various functionalities to your pipeline. Nodes are categorized for easy access, but if you're looking for something specific, the search bar at the top is a handy tool.
Common Parameters: All nodes within goofi have a set of common parameters. These settings consistently dictate how the node operates within the pipeline.
-

-
Max_Frequency: This denotes the maximum rate at which computations are set for the node.
Metadata: This section conveys essential information passed between nodes. Each output node will be accompanied by its metadata, providing clarity and consistency throughout the workflow.
Here are some conventional components present in the metadata
-

This image showcases the process of utilizing a pre-recorded EEG signal through the LSLClient
node. It's crucial to ensure that the Stream Name
in the LSLClient
node matches the stream name in the node receiving the data. This ensures data integrity and accurate signal processing in real-time.
This patch provides a demonstration of basic EEG signal processing using goofi-pipe.
-
EEGRecording: This is the starting point where the EEG data originates.
-
LSLClient: The
LSLClient
node retrieves the EEG data fromEEGRecording
. Here, the visual representation of the EEG data being streamed in real-time is depicted. By default, the multiple lines in the plot correspond to the different EEG channels. -
Buffer: This node holds the buffered EEG data.
-
Psd: Power Spectral Density (PSD) is a technique to measure a signal's power content versus frequency. In this node, the raw EEG data is transformed to exhibit its power distribution across distinct frequency bands.
-
Math: This node is employed to execute mathematical operations on the data. In this context, it's rescaling the values to ensure a harmonious dynamic range between 0 and 1, which is ideal for image representation. The resultant data is then visualized as an image.
One of the user-friendly features of goofi-pipe is the capability to toggle between different visualizations. By 'Ctrl+clicking' on any plot within a node, you can effortlessly switch between a line plot and an image representation, offering flexibility in data analysis.

Using PCA (Principal Component Analysis) allows us to reduce the dimensionality of raw EEG data, while retaining most of the variance. We use the first three components and visualize their trajectory, allowing us to identify patterns in the data over time. The topographical maps show the contribution of each channel to the first four principal components (PCs).
Leveraging the multimodal framework of goofi, state-of-the-art machine learning classifiers can be built on-the-fly to predict behavior from an array of different sources. Here's a brief walkthrough of three distinct examples:
This patch captures raw EEG signals using the
EEGRecording
and LSLClient
modules. The classifier captures data from different states indicated by the user from n features, which in the present case are the 64 EEG channels. Some classifiers allow for visualization of feature importance. Here we show a topomap of the distribution of feature importances on the scalp. The classifier outputs probability of being in each of the states in the training data. This prediction is smoothed using a buffer for less jittery results.
The audio input stream captures real-time sound data, which can also be passed through a classifier. Different sonic states can be predicted in realtime.
In this example, video frames are extracted using the
VideoStream
module. Similarly, prediction of labelled visual states can be achieved in realtime.
The images show how two states (being on the left or the right side of the image) can be detected using classification
These patches demonstrate the versatility of our framework in handling various types of real-time data streams for classification tasks.
