binica in fieldtrip

[Sameer Walawalkar]

Hello,

I am running componentanalysis.m within fieldtrip to do ICA in order to
remove blinks etc. I tried using

cfg.method = 'fastICA'
cfg.trials = 1:100  (data has 306 channels)
  but got failure to converge on 19th ica and analysis was aborted.
Does anyone have any ideas about dealing with this?

I also tried
cfg.method = 'runica'
cfg.trials = 1:100

but it takes a very looooong time.

Any ways around it? I know that one can implement binica in EEGLAB. It is
supposed to be 12 xs faster and can use smaller memory.

Can I implement cfg.method = 'binica'? in fieldtrip?

thanks,
sameer
