The estimation and visualization of active parts of the brain from EEG recordings is referred to as the EEG source imaging. The source estimation is highly sensitive to modeling uncertainties of the computational model, especially the electrical properties of the head tissues. We show that the exact knowledge of the skull conductivity is not always necessary, since it can be taken into account statistically in the inversion by using the Bayesian approximation error approach.
