<br>
sometimes ICA is suboptimal for muscle artifacts. Not always, depends indeed how your data look like.<br>
<br>
for an alternative method, please see<br>

Dear Marc,<br>
<br>
Your figures seem to be missing, so it is hard to judge what the artifacts look like exactly. Could it be that one of your head localization coils was switched on througout the measurement?<br>
In general, if your goal is to do source localization, I would not try to fix ugly channels, but just omit them from the sensor-array, because there will be plenty of sensors left.<br>
The fixing operation (whatever way it is done, e.g. nearest neighbour interpolation, ICA etc) involves replacing each channel's estimate by a linear combination of a subset of/all other channels. You have to keep in mind that the solution to the forward model (i.e. the leadfields for the sources you want to estimate) have to take the same linear operation into account in order to give correct results. As such, irrespective of the fact that the noisy channels are on the edge of the array, interpolation does not really make sense, because you are not really improving the quality of your total signal array. Also, in this case, I don't expect that rejecting the independent component capturing the artifact will be that beneficial, because most likely the spatial topography of this component of this component will be confined to the three bad guys, with more or less random loadings on the rest of the channels. Did you check whether the artifact is present at the level of the reference sensors? If that's the case, you could consider applying the cfw and afw (compute fixed weights, and apply fixed weights) utilities from the 4D software. <br>
Best wishes<br>

Dear all,<br>
<br>
I have quite a naive question.<br>
I'm processing some MEG (4-D) datasets in order to use source location methods afterwards. One of my concerns is that I have some channels (3 in a row) with a steady high frequency artifact >50Hz (I thought it is muscle activity, However it is very tonic and present during the whole recording) which is within my frequencies of interest. This can be seen in the attached figures: timelocked responses bandpass filtered between 15 and 150 Hz, and time-frequency activity between 50 and 100 Hz.<br>
As the artefactual channels are put altogether in the right edge of the sensor array (A148, A147 and A146) interpolation may not be a suitable method to eliminate those artefactual channels. (?)<br>
<br>
I was wondering whether it is possible to correct those artifacts using ICA in such a way similar to ECG artifact removal using component analysis, that is, by identifying and remove those components in the source analysis that explain the high-frequency artifacts present in some of my channels.<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot.<br>
