SV: [FIELDTRIP] multiplotTFR for 128 channel Neuroscan EEG data ???

[Carina Graversen]

Hi Ingrid.

Thanks a lot.

I have tried to generate my own layout file in Neuroscan, but unfortunately
it doesn't work. So I was wondering if you can tell me the format of the
layout-file, because when I look at your file, 2 of the columns contain the
same value for all channels.

I have tried to generate for both cartesian and polor, but none of them
matches. In the generated file I get the format:
<display page><channel number><pos x0><pos y0><pos x1><pos y1>

Can I change my input configuration to either use this format, or how should
I change the format of the layout file ???

Thanks in advance  :o)

Hi Carina,

Thanks for sending me the data. Indeed the biosemi 128ch layout doesn't
correspond to your layout. You have 128 channels labeled from 1 to 128. If
you open biosemi128.lay in a text-editor you can see that this layout file
has 150 channels labeled from A1 to P7. The labels in your data
(TFRmult.label) and the labels in the layout file don't match, that's why
you got an empty figure (I'll add an error in the plot function, so that
when no labels match you'll get an error message in the future).

So what you have to do now is to make your own layout file that matches the
data; with the correct x and y coordinates of the 128 channels and the same
label names as in your data. Just as an illustration I attached an adapted
version of the biosemi128.lay file, with only the first 128 channels, and
labels 1 to 128, just as in your data. With the following configuration:

cfg8 = [];
cfg8.baseline   = [0 0.1];
cfg8.xlim       = [0 0.3]
cfg8.ylim       = [15 29];
cfg8.zlim       = [-100 100];
cfg8.showlabels = 'yes';
cfg8.layout    = 'testlay128.lay';

I got the attached figure from your data.

Good luck,
Ingrid

Hi Carina

Are you sure that the biosemi 128ch layout corresponds with your
electrode layout? Open the layout file in a tetx editor and look at
http://www2.ru.nl/fcdonders/fieldtrip/doku.php?
id=fieldtrip:documentation:frequently_asked_questions#what_is_the_format
_of_the_layout_file_which_is_used_for_plotting

I suggest that you try the elec1010.lay or elec1005.lay, or even
better, that you construct your own layout file corresponding with
your own electrode locations.
