[FieldTrip] TFR : Common baseline for variable trial length

[András Puszta]

Hi Amine,

I think you should be aware of 2 things:
1. "Trial number" of baseline matches with the trial number of the other
condition that you compare.
2. The selected baseline-period is in the original baseline-distribution's
CI

What I suggest is to cut randomly as many segments from the baseline as the
number of trials in the other condition, and as long segments as the length
of the trials. Next, check if the cutted baseline-segments are within the
original baseline's CI (for example by bootstrap resampling). After that
you can perform permutation statistics between baseline and the othe
condition, or normalize the condition and do permutation test against zero.

Hope I helped,

Andras
