[FieldTrip] Cluster-based permutation test (CBPT)

Dear all


I am trying to implement a CBPT to compare data extracted from EEG
recordings of a group of patients vs control.

In short, I have 19 channels, 10 subjects of each type and 115 measurements
per channel and subject to be compared. I am trying to find significative
differences in a range of measurements (say from the 10th to the 20th) at
all/most/some channels, reason why I am trying to use the cluster-based
approach.

After somehow following the instrunctions in "
http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/tutorial/cluster_permutation_timelock" for
within-subjects experiments I think I have my data properly structured
according to FT needs. However, when I run the last part of the code
(ft_timelockstatistics) I get the following warning and error:

*Warning: Using 'state' to set RAND's internal state causes RAND, RANDI,
and RANDN to use legacy random number generators.  This*
*syntax will be removed in a future release.  See Updating Your Random
Number Generator Syntax to use RNG to replace the old syntax. *

*Error in FT_permTest (line 73)*

Anyone knows why?


Thanks in advance
