Method for locating a brain activity, comprising the steps consisting in: a) acquiring data indicative of sensory stimuli addressed to, or deliberate actions performed or imagined by, a subject; b) by means of a plurality of sensors, acquiring signals representative of an activity, associated with said stimuli or deliberate actions, of respective regions of the brain of said subject; and c) for each said sensor, quantifying a correlation that exists between said data indicative of sensory stimuli or of deliberate actions and the signals acquired; characterized in that, for each said sensor, said correlation is established between a scalar variable indicative of a said sensory stimulus or of a said deliberate action and a multidimensional variable representative of signals that are associated therewith. Application of this method to the determination of optimum locations for brain activity sensors for direct neural control.
