[Eeglablist] code for converting EEGLAB to fieldtrip data formats (and vice versa)

[Matt Mollison]

Wambua, something like this should convert segmented events in EEGLAB .set
files to FieldTrip structures. Not sure how to go back to EEGLAB. Hope it
helps.

Matt

% ========================================
eventVales = {'target','lure'};

% the amount of time before and after the segmented events, in seconds
prepost = [0.5 1.5];

% importing eeglab .set files
ftype = 'eeglab_set';

% initialize the data structure
data = struct;

% add each event value as a field in the data struct
for evVal = 1:length(eventValues)

  % path to the eeglab .set file
  infile = fullfile('path/to/files',[eventValues{evVal},'.set']);

  cfg = [];
  cfg.dataset = infile;
  cfg.headerfile = infile;
  cfg.dataformat = ftype;
  cfg.headerformat = ftype;
  cfg.continuous = 'no';

  cfg.trialdef.prestim = prepost(1);
  cfg.trialdef.poststim = prepost(2);
  cfg.trialfun = 'trialfun_general';
  cfg.trialdef.eventtype = 'trigger';
  cfg.trialdef.eventvalue = eventValues{evVal};
  cfg = ft_definetrial(cfg);

  data.(eventValues{evVal}) = ft_preprocessing(cfg);
end
