EEG signals are often contaminated with artefacts, particularly with mains power from electrical equipment. Low-pass filtering and notch filtering can lose valuable data. Here we describe a novel mains power noise removal method based on the fact that mains power noise is a sine wave component with an essentially fixed frequency and the same phase across all channels. This removes the blink component, leaving uncontaminated EEG largely unchanged. Blink removal had a success rate of >99.9% recovered variance of the original EEG when removing synthesised mains power components. We compared this method with two other popular mains power noise removal methods. Our method was better than Cleanline which is an ICA based method and multiple PLI which is an adaptive notch filter based method. With the higher recovery, our method shows clear advantages over Cleanline and multiple PLI for removing mains power noise. From the aspect of data loss, it is obviously better than low-pass filter and normal notch filter.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
