eliminate slow drifts in the data which make the mean non-stationary.<br><br>If you want to look at low frequencies specifically, you might do low pass<br>filtering, or band pass between 0.1Hz and say 30 Hz, to try to remove high<br>
frequency sources, leaving only the low frequency sources, but I doubt this<br>would improve ERP results over a ! Hz high-pass filter.<br><br>Average reference is also fine if you are doing ICA after. Spreading muscle<br>

<br>I am applying the PCA before applying the ICA to reduce the number of components. How the data rank would be modified in this case?<br>I have to admit that it never happened to me that the muscle artefact is put in a single source with the ICA. Usually it spreads on half of the components, is this only my experience? <br>
