Objective: We seek stable Electrophysiological Source Imaging (ESI) biomarkers associated with Gait Speed (GS) as a measure of functional decline. Towards this end we determine the predictive value of ESI activation and connectivity patterns of resting-state EEG Theta rhythm on physical performance decline measured by a slowing GS in aging individuals. Methods: As potential biomarkers related to GS changes, we estimate ESI using flexible sparse/smooth/non-negative models (NN-SLASSO), from which activation ESI (aESI) and connectivity ESI (cESI) features are selected using the Stable Sparse Classifier method. Results and Conclusions: Novel sparse aESI models outperformed traditional methods such as the LORETA family. The models combining aESI and cESI features improved the predictability of GS changes. Selected biomarkers from activation/connectivity patterns were localized to orbitofrontal and temporal cortical regions. Significance: The proposed methodology contributes to understanding the activation and connectivity of ESI complex patterns related to GS, providing potential biomarker features for GS slowing. Given the known relationship between GS decline and cognitive impairment, this preliminary work suggests it might be applied to other, more complex measures of healthy and pathological aging. Importantly, it might allow an ESI-based evaluation of rehabilitation programs. |
