If the EOG electrodes are bipolar -- that is, not linked to the same reference electrode as the rest of the channels -- then their values in the IC map are 'floating' with respect to the other channels (i.e. have some DC offset) and their values in IC maps should be ignored when submitting the IC maps to source localization (either formal or 'by eye') . But since activity in the EOG channel should be linearly related to the other channels (if well recorded), it may be included in ICA decomposition; the relevant source activities will also contribute to the EOG channel. <br>
<br>If important or useful, it should be possible to estimate the true values for the EOG electrodes in the IC maps by making a source model for activity projected to the other common-reference channels, projecting it to the two EOG electrode locations, and then minimizing the difference of their projected difference from the decomposed IC EOG-channel value (i.e., removing the floating EOG-channel offset to make the resulting IC map as smooth as possible).<br>

<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Shall endeavor to find out this week, if there's
time amongst the residential schools. But from what I can discern the EOG
electrodes do seem to make a difference - when I ran an ICA on the eye
calibration task used to measure artifact without any EOG electrodes in the mix,
around 40 of the 68 components highlighted the F8 region as a strong source, and
this in a task purely involving eye movement, no other processing involved other
than possibly recognizing the shapes used to indicate where the subject should
look. Tried running it again but included </font><font size="2" face="Arial">some
estimated positions of EOG electrodes at the front, and there were still
40+ components all indicating activity at the frontal lobe, but now the activity
was around the face instead of F8. If nothing else, the EOG information should
assist ICA by isolating changes in multiple electrodes with correlate with the
EOG data and rendering it completely independent from the underlying actual
data.</font></div>

<div><font size="2" face="Arial">As for labels, well I couldn't find any consistent
EOG labeling systems for MATLAB, so why not start gathering labels? Let me
know what labels you use for the eye channels and I can build the .loc file -
David Groppe (many thanks again!) sent me a set of coordinates for the ocular
electrodes, but there is no problem with having multiple names for the same set
of coordinates - EEGLab detects what we're using anyway. Worth a
shot.</font></div>

coordinates for EOG electrodes</div></div></div><div><div></div><div class="h5">
<div><br></div>Hi Ian,
<div><br></div>
<div>I also made a similar query few months ago. I use 64 electrode 10-20 system
plus 4 EOGs. I asked whether there are specific labels for such EOG electrodes
in the standard-10-5-Cap385.sfp so that I can map these electrodes on the fly.
Are there labels for those, or can we decide and add those labels and
coordinates as a community together?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Actually, I find something more important: How much really does this
influence ICA related artifact detection and correction? Is there a huge change
when you include horizontal and vertical EOGs in the ICA based ERP calculations?
Are there others over there who compared ICA based
computations with and without including the EOG electrodes?</div>
