[Eeglablist] Eye movement artifact in ICA - missing coordinates for EOG electrodes

Hi Ian,

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?

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?
