<div dir="ltr">Dear James,<div><br></div><div>Just yesterday Tim Mullen, the developer of SIFT, noticed the error in distributing the latest SIFT through the EEGLAB plugin manager, so that may be related... this will be fixed (hopefully) very quickly.</div>
<div><br></div><div>but I want to say that I've heard the same thing before, and the cause of the problem at that time was that the user used the default values for preprocess, which was like 'for 2-sec epoch, use 2-sec sliding window' in which the window can not slide at all and could generate indeed a single point (like FFT, in contrast to wavelet transform). In your case the message says '6/105' so this may not be the case, but double check it just in case.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I also recommend that you check <a href="http://EEG.CAT">EEG.CAT</a> for the parameters of ongoing SIFT analysis because the PropertyGrid tool sometimes behaves counterintuitively and users may find the different parameters in the computation from what they specified.</div>

<br>The preprocessing steps
appear to work, although rather quickly, and do not give the typical status update indicating which window is being analyzed at that moment (status update just says "checking whiteness, Condition: " instead of "checking whiteness, Condition: , windows 6/105", etc.). These steps complete much more quickly than usual. Our concern is that a single data
point is being used as opposed to the whole epoch. Additionally, when using the
model order selection step, the model order selection assistant does not give a resulting line plot indicating how many windows exceed or don't exceed the thresholds for whiteness or consistency. There's just a single bar graph for one of the whiteness evaluating algorithms, and the rest are blank.
The visualization of connectivity also produces a familiar component vs. component matrix of graphs, but all of them are empty. Finally, when we go to use the BrainMovie feature, only a single time-point seems to be available in the bottom time-scroll bar (i.e. the "start" time point and the "end" time point are the same time point, in our case, -1.88 seconds).<br>
<br>This appears to be the case for other datasets we're trying, and we're also using the
recommended steps found in the SIFT manual. How would we go about verifying whether
a single data point in the epoch is being used, and has anyone else noticed this issue? Is it a MATLAB-EEGLAB-SIFT version compatibility issue?<br><br>Thank you all for your attention!<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
