[FieldTrip] Imaginary part of coherence, 'indepsamplesZcoh'

["Jörn M. Horschig"]

Hi Ramin,

hope you are doing fine. For the imaginary part of coherence you need to 
call ft_connectivityanalysis with cfg.output = 'imag'.
Afaik, z-scoring for the imaginary part is different from doing it for 
the plain coherence, so you should not use indepsamplesZcoh. You could 
have a look at Guido Nolte's paper on imaginary coherence and look it up 
in the methods section how he is computing it - similar but different 
from what I know how the z-scoring for coherence is computed. Thus, I am 
not sure how to best do cluster-based statistics on that (that means, I 
know how you could do it, but not what the best way to do it would be). 
Of course, you write an own statistics function, something like 
'indepsamplesZicoh'... but that would be tons of work.

Good luck! I hope anyone out there has other/better ideas :)

Best,
Jörn
