Hi Katrin,<br>
<br>
Hmm, the MATLAB version difference points to a potential bug in the<br>
code. Could you tell me which version it now works on, and which<br>
version it did not work on earlier?<br>
<br>
ICA not working on your repaired data makes sense, and the cause is in<br>
fact pretty much what you mentioned yourself. The data in the repaired<br>
channels are now linear combinations (i.e. weighted sums) of the data<br>
in other channels, so the rank of your data (number of orthogonal data<br>
vectors) is now smaller than the number of channels. In other words,<br>
your data is rank deficient. ICA does not work properly on<br>
rank-deficient data. There are a few solutions to this.<br>
<br>
I would not recommend including the bad channels in the ICA. Your<br>
second suggestion would be better: compute ICA on the data without the<br>
bad channels, then interpolate them after backprojecting to channel<br>
space. A third option would be to reduce the dimensionality of the ICA<br>
input data to its 'true' dimensionality. If you specify<br>
cfg.numcomponent = N when calling ft_componentanalysis, the data will<br>
first undergo PCA, keeping N dimensions. In your case you would need<br>
to set N to be maximally the number of recorded channels minus the<br>
number of interpolated ones. This third option is probably the easiest<br>
and best way to go.<br>
<br>
Lastly, the fact that ICA still works if you repair the channels in<br>
other software is possibly due to this other software applying some<br>
form of non-linear algorithm to repair the channels. In that case the<br>
rank of your data might not be altered.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Eelke<br>
