<div dir="ltr">Dear Booer,<div><br></div><div>blinks are usually well identified by ICA. You may not easily identify blinks if:</div><div>1) your subject blinks really a few times -> not enough for being captured by ICA, you may just discard the few epochs containing the blinks;</div>
<div>2) when your subject blinks, s/he moves so much that the relative artifact spreads over most sensors, and ICA is not able to capture it in a few clear components -> Also in this case my advice is to discard the epochs containing the blinks;</div>
<div>3) you are computing the ICA on noisy data -> reject segments of your data containing non-stereotypical artifacts and compute the ICA again.</div><div><br></div><div>ADJUST works well only if the ICA is computed on clean enough data.</div>

<div><span></span>Hello,</div><div>I want to use ICA to reject eye blink. But for some subjects it is easy to find eye blink component, for others it is hard to find blink component even I use the plugin-ADJUST. So does ICA <span style="background-color:rgba(0,0,0,0)">extract</span> eye blink component without fail??</div>
