[FieldTrip] computing threshold for PLV

[Subramaniam Iyer]

Dear FT Experts,



I have calculated PLV for a set of EEG data from 5 different patients. 
Now I want to convert the PLV matrix of each patient into a binary 
matrix. For this I need a threshold PLV value below which I can assume 
the phase locking is zero.

My question is, how do I compute this threshold. I know hard 
thresholding is one option ( for ex setting 0.1 or 0.2 as threshold), 
but I guess it is not a very good option.



Can somebody suggest a better and robust (statistical) way of determining the threshold ?
