[FieldTrip] subspace projection

[jan-mathijs schoffelen]

Hi Jan,

You can look up the rationale in the work of Kensuke Sekihara. Look for 'eigenspace beamformer'. The implementation in FieldTrip is along these lines (but slightly differently implemented).

Best wishes,

Jan-Mathijs

From looking at the code it seems that data and lead field are projected onto a subspace spanned by the first X singular vectors of the covariance matrix (correct me if I’m wrong). Seems helpful in my case but I am hesitant to use it without knowing anything about it.
