Generate dipole time series

epoch_duration = 2.  # duration of each epoch/event
n = 0  # harmonic number


def data_fun(times):

    n_samp = len(times)
    window = np.zeros(n_samp)

Simulate raw data



In [ ]:

    
raw_sim = simulate_raw(raw, stc, trans_fname, src, bem_fname, cov='simple',
                       iir_filter=[0.2, -0.2, 0.04], ecg=True, blink=True,
                       n_jobs=1, verbose=True)
raw_sim.plot()

Plot evoked data



In [ ]:

    
events = find_events(raw_sim)  # only 1 pos, so event number == 1
epochs = Epochs(raw_sim, events, 1, -0.2, epoch_duration)
cov = compute_covariance(epochs, tmax=0., method='empirical')  # quick calc
evoked = epochs.average()
evoked.plot_white(cov)
