Abstract

We present a parallel mesh-free particle method to solve the EEG forward problem in brain source localization. The method is based on discretization-corrected PSE operators and is entirely mesh-free. This allows the flexible representation of complex geometries and accurate solution of the forward problem inside and around them. We present the method and its parallel implementation, and we validate and benchmark it on a test problem for which the exact solution is known.
