[FieldTrip] adapting leadfields after PCA/ICA

Hi Jan-Mathijs, 

Thank you for this quick and informative reply; we indeed use ft_componentanalysis and ft_rejectcomponent sequentially. I will make sure to save the grad structures for the later source analysis. Great! 

Thank you again, 

best, Tessa

I imagine that you use ft_componentanalysis and ft_rejectcomponent sequentially in order to remove the eye blink topographies. 
If you use the data.grad in the output to ft_rejectcomponent for the computation of the leadfields you should be fine. The balancing matrix grad.tra will contain the information that will be used for the correction of the leadfields.

Dear FieldTrip users,

When ICA components representing eyeblink artifacts have been removed from the data, how can the leadfield for source reconstruction be adapted to account for the alterations to the data?
