[FieldTrip] Automatic ICA algorithm in fieldtrip

[Nicolai Mersebak]

Thank you for the responds. 

@Don, sorry for my choice of word. I differently meant some of the routines and not the whole package! 

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I don't mean the usually ICA algorithms (e.g runica), where you manually reject ICA components after running the algorithm. There are some plugins in EEGLAB, where the artifact removal of EOG is automatic using ICA. Most often you are using it, when you have multiple subjects and don't have time to go through all subjects manually. 

So my question is if someone has tried to use an automatic artifact removal algorithm based on ICA in fieldtrip? An example is the FASTER plugin in EEGLAB - http://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/EEGLAB_Plugins. 

Best,

Nicolai

There is some integration, however, and in this particular case, fieldtrip can call the some of the ica routines included in EEGLAB, as well as others (e.g., fastica). Look at the documentation for ft_componentanalysis and the example on the FieldTrip website:
