[FieldTrip] concatenating data to a single trial data set

[Andreas Wollbrink]

Dear all,

in order not to run into a RAM memory overload when performing an ICA on 
MEG data I subdivided the raw data into several equally long segments 
(chops) using ft_preprocessing with varying cfg.trl settings.
After applying ft_componentanalysis to each of these chops I removed 
some (bad) components and backprojected the data to seperate data 
matrices using the following code:

cfg = [];
cfg.component = badCompVec; % to be removed component(s)
dataCorr = ft_rejectcomponent(cfg, compData);


Finally I like to concatenate these data to a continuous (single trial) 
data matrix in order to compare it with the original raw data set and 
perform the further timelock analysis on it.

I tried using ft_appenddata for this issue. Doing so one gets a multi 
trial data matrix which I could not convert to single trial continuous 
data matrix using e.g. ft_redefinetrial.

I would appreciate any help in how to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance.
