In this paper, we introduce mathematical models based on multi-way data construction and analysis with a goal of simultaneously separating and localizing the sources in the brain by analysis of scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) data. we address the problem of EEG source separation and localization through a 3-way tensor analysis. We represent multi-channel EEG data using a third-order tensor with modes: space (channels), time samples and number of segments. Then we demonstrate that multi-way analysis techniques, in particular PARAFAC2, can successfully separate and localize disjoint sources within the brain. Also we used this method for separation of maternal and fetal ECG signals.
