Vision in autism spectrum disorders. (2009, background): “Note that this result is unlikely to have been affected by the eye-movement artifacts which possibly contaminate measurements of gamma band activity in adults (Yuval-Greenberg et al., 2008).”
Untangling cross-frequency coupling in neuroscience (2014, neutral): “Furthermore, since we are aware of several alternative explanations such as eye-movement artifacts that might contribute to gamma-band power changes we can design experiments to control for them [37].”
The temporal structures and functional significance of scale-free brain activity (2010, positive): “A recent study showed that microsaccades could produce artifactual broadband activity in the EEG signal (Yuval-Greenberg et al., 2008).”
Signal quality of simultaneously recorded invasive and non-invasive EEG (2009, background): “blinks, eye movements such as saccades or also micro-saccades, head movements, and electromyographic (EMG) activity from muscles close to the recording sites (Crespo-Garcia et al., 2008; Croft and Barry, 2000; Fitzgibbon et al., 2007; Ghandeharion and Erfanian, 2006; Joynt, 1959; Li and Principe, 20”
Towards the utilization of EEG as a brain imaging tool (2012, background): “…to better understanding induced brain activity (see e.g. recent works by Yuval- Greenberg, Deouell, and colleagues on the importance of spatial information in the detection of ocular-related induced gamma-band activity; (Yuval-Greenberg and Deouell, 2009, 2010; Yuval-Greenberg et al., 2008)).”
Different Origins of Gamma Rhythm and High-Gamma Activity in Macaque Visual Cortex (2011, background): “In other words, broadband components associated with spiking, stimulus onset, or eye movements [54], if decomposed into a series of oscillatory components, can lead to spurious correlations between those components.”
Oscillatory synchronization in large-scale cortical networks predicts perception. (2011, neutral): “To control for potential microsaccade artifacts (Yuval-Greenberg et al., 2008), we repeated all tests for coherence modulations within the identified cortical networks (see below) after removing data that were confounded by microsaccades (EOG based detection; Keren et al., 2010).”
Neurophysiological and Computational Principles of Cortical Rhythms in Cognition (2010, background): “First, caution must be exercised with interpreting scalp EEGs (314, 1088).”
Automatic Sleep Stage Scoring Using Time-Frequency Analysis and Stacked Sparse Autoencoders (2015, background): “* There is evidence in the literature that features from modalities other than EEG, such as eye movements [27], stage R sleep [13] and EMG activity [8, 25], can manifest themselves in the gamma activity of EEG.”
Age-Related Changes in 1/f Neural Electrophysiological Noise (2015, background): “Furthermore, high-frequency power is more difficult to interpret in the scalp EEG due to large, non-neural artifacts from (e.g., saccades) (Yuval-Greenberg et al., 2008) and scalp muscles (Voytek et al., 2010b).”
EEG and MEG: relevance to neuroscience. (2013, neutral): “The criticisms of Yuval-Greenberg et al. (2008) triggered an open controversy (Fries et al., 2008; Melloni et al., 2009).”
