1. A method for monitoring activity of modular sources within the brain, the method comprising:

  • obtaining encephalography data for one or more subjects;

    processing the encephalography data using a first independent component analysis algorithm to identify a plurality of first components within the encephalography data;

    based on the first components, defining a spectral shaping filter emphasizing spectral frequencies at which the components of the first plurality of components are more statistically independent over other frequencies at which the components of the first plurality of components are less statistically independent;

    processing the encephalography data using the spectral shaping filter to yield spectrally-shaped encephalography data;

    processing the spectrally-shaped encephalography data using a second independent component analysis algorithm to identify a plurality of second components within the spectrally-shaped encephalography data; and

    ,processing the encephalography data to determine weights corresponding to the second components.
