Abstract: We present a very simple yet powerful generalization of a previously described model and algorithm for estimation of multiple dipoles from magneto/electro-encephalographic data. Specifically, the generalization consists in the introduction of a log-uniform hyperprior on the standard deviation of a set of conditionally linear/Gaussian variables. We use numerical simulations and an experimental dataset to show that the approximation to the posterior distribution remains extremely stable under a wide range of values of the hyperparameter, virtually removing the dependence on the hyperparameter.
