    hi Steve, <br>
    <br>
    Thanks, sounds like a very reasonable explanation.<br>
    I'm wondering whether I could use Arjen's correction for head
    movement prior to ICA decomposition, but I can imagine there would
    be problems with doing the regression first... I'll ask Arjen what
    he thinks and post it here - if he doesn't see this before I see him
    again - but I'd be curious to hear what you think as well.<br>
    <br>
    Thanks a lot!<br>

            <div>Hello Vitoria,<br>
              <br>

            I'm not sure, but one of my guesses would be head movement.
            That is to say, if the participant moves her head an inch
            (for example) then the same type of activity is going to
            start appearing on different sensors, and if that movement
            isn't corrected for then you can indeed start seeing what
            looks like many copies of the same component. (If you've
            done EEG, this is the same thing that happens when, for
            example, you bring the same participant back for multiple
            sessions on separate days and concatenate the datasets
            together, but didn't put the cap on on exactly the same
            place each time.) Do you have marker measurements you can
            use to at least check how much the head was moving, and
            perhaps to correct for movements over the course of the
            session?<br>

                      Hi everyone,<br>
                      <br>
                      I'm running ICA (cfg.method = 'runica') on CTF
                      data with 274 sensors. I<br>
                      was restricting my decomposition to 80 components
                      at first, and it<br>
                      worked well for all previous patients.<br>
                      Somehow, for this particular patient, many of the
                      components have<br>
                      similar topography (I'm only showing till 42 below
                      but the similarity<br>
                      continues for more components). Has anyone ever
                      seen this before?<br>
                      If I look at the time course of these components,
                      not all of them are<br>
                      clear eye-movements, but according to the
                      topography, you'd think they are.<br>
                      Any thoughts, like either changing the method or
                      rejecting only those<br>
                      components whose time courses clearly indicate eye
                      movements and keep<br>
                      other components despite their topographies?<br>
                      <br>
                      Thanks,<br>
                      Vitoria<br>
