Yes but that would be correct if there was only one trial in the
data set (see the message from Luisa).<br>

Thanks for it I will test it.<br>

The idea is to calculate the covariance on all trials, calculate
weights by this covariance (keep filter in LCMV) and then apply
these weights on the averaged data. I found it useful because
the covariance is better for longer datasets, and the averaging
in the end increases the signal to noise ratio. I do not know
exactly how to do it in fieldtrip.<br>

<br>
I have to admit that I did not look at the matlab
routines.<br>
In item 2 I suppose that the covariance is calculated for
each trial then averaged. In item 3 I would like to
calculate the covariance from all the signal (the trials
being concatenated).<br>

<div>As far as I know you can do it on an averaged

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff"> Dear
fieldtrip users,<br>
<br>
There are different ways of estimating the
covariance for LCMV calculation.<br>
If I am correct: <br>
<br>
1. As suggested in one of the tutorial one
can apply the calculation of the
covariance directly on the average data
(for the different periods of interest
that are at least a base line and the
period of interest).<br>
<br>
2. Estimate the covariance from the
average of the covariance rather than the
covariance of the average using
cfg.keeptrials = "yes"<br>
<br>
3. Estimate the covariance from the whole
trials concatenated together. <br>
Is there an easy way to do that in
fieldtrip (beside create a new data set of
one trial constituted of all the trials)?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
