<div dir="ltr">Dear Melinna,<div><br></div><div>Very interesting point. I was also surprised that my wiki page did not explain it. I added an explanation to it. I believe it answers your questions. If not let me know.</div><div><a href="https://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/Makoto%27s_preprocessing_pipeline#Rejecting_ICs_to_improve_the_next_ICA.3F_Or_what_is_rank_and_linear_algebra_.2807.2F16.2F2018_updated.29">https://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/Makoto%27s_preprocessing_pipeline#Rejecting_ICs_to_improve_the_next_ICA.3F_Or_what_is_rank_and_linear_algebra_.2807.2F16.2F2018_updated.29</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Makoto</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Sun, Jul 15, 2018 at 9:10 PM 梅晓林 <<a href="mailto:melinna.sysu@gmail.com">melinna.sysu@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Dear all,<div><br></div><div>There are prolbems of running speed that I have met when I am doing ICA analysis, and I really need your help.</div><div><br></div><div>The data I have is in 66 channels (64 EEG channels and 2 EOG channels). The preprocess procedure here only involves filtering (high pass, 0.1HZ), rejecting bad epochs manually, and interpolating

The former change ('pca') can re-speed the ICA but the latter won't (define ncomps).</div><div><br></div><div>I become more and more confused. As the problem mentioned above, my question here is:</div><div><br></div><div>1, Can I run ICA if some channels are correlated to others? if there are correlated channels, the ICA running seems doesn't work.</div><div><br></div><div>2, After removing one component in the first run, is it possible to ru-run ICA without any additional parameter setting? I can understand that the number of data demension has been reduced after substracting components, but I don't understand why it can work in some subjects and not work for all.</div><div><br></div><div>Your reply is really of great value for this work. Looking forward to it.</div><div>Thanks a lot.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Melinna </div><div>Department of Psychology</div><div>Sun-Yat Sen University</div><div>China</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div> </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div> </div></div>
