Description

Proposed documentation enhancement

Add an example of how SSD can be used within a machine-learning pipeline. At the moment we have an example on how SSD enhances oscillatory brain activity, but not how it can be integrated within a decoding pipeline. The examples can then be added in the tutorials/machine-learning/plot_sensors_decoding.py, which are the moment SSD is missing there.

My idea is to show how SSD can be beneficial before applying CSP or SPoC. A brief explanation on the formulation of SSD can be added too, as done for CSP.

What do you think @dengemann @larsoner @sappelhoff @drammock ??

Research direction

Start with tutorials/machine-learning/plot_sensors_decoding.py and the existing auto_examples/decoding/plot_ssd_spatial_filters.py example. Review how CSP and SPoC are explained, then determine how SSD should be demonstrated before them in the decoding pipeline. Done means the tutorial includes an SSD example and a brief formulation explanation.
