[Eeglablist] epoch extracting

Tue Jun 25 04:21:34 PDT 2013

Dear Tahani,
You need a tigger signal for that. At the end the problem consist just in finding the correct value in the tigger (correspond to press button) signal.
Best regards,
Carlos

Asunto: [Eeglablist] epoch extracting

Dear Makoto 

I want to know if there is a possibilities to extract epochs with inconstant lengths.
I have a continues EEG dataset where the participant can spend as long time as he/she wants before responding (press the button) to the presented stimuli. So based on that, this dataset contains  stimuli with very quick responses and others with very late responses(in some cases more than 2.5 min). 
Can you please suggest me how to deal with this case

Cheers,
Tahani

Dear Tahani,

Check out SIFT by Tim Mullen
http://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/SIFT

When you compute coherence measures, it generates EEG.Conn.... you can simply average them across all channels. FYI, averaging across column gives you information outflow, and across raw gives you information inflow.

Hi List
>I have a question about combining coherence measurement for multi electrodes. I mean If I calculate the coherence between each pair in a dataset of 40 electrodes. Is there any way to combine theses measurements in one measure I need a way better that averaging. or any idea that help me to have just one measurement instead of this big number of measurements

>>Thanks alot for your reply. I will try to explain my problem so that may give you an idea about what i am trying to do. Simply i try to make a comparsion between calculating cross-coherence between two channals using first pop-newcrossf() and second by Mscoher.
>>I followed the next steps:
>>1- I filtered the signals 
>>2- extract the epoches
>>3-run ICA
>>4- i used pop_newcrossf() to calculate the cross-coherence between channel CP1(17) and CP2(18) in the first case as can be seen in the attached figures.

>>Looks like your channel 1 and 2 are very much alike. Did you choose two ICs? Did you choose subspace of alpha or mu that are similar to each other?
>>
>>
>>If there were coherence of near 1 between two ICs that do not belong to the same subspace (and I guess that's the case here), something should be wrong because they are far from independent. Why don't you check the setup and tell us more detail about the comparison?

>>>Hi List
>>> 
>>>I asked a question before about measuring EEG coherence by EEGLAB. I got benifits from the answer i got  but still have something wrong. I applied the function to the same dataset provided with EEGLAB tutorial. i filtered the data first and then extract the epoches (153). After that i run ICA and ploted component cross-coherence between channel 4 and channel 9.
>>>As you can see fig(1) was the result and i tried to zoom it in (fig 2).
>>>I wanted to compare the result with that can be done by matlab function (Mcoher) and fig(3) represents the results i got.
>>>My question is that, there is a big difference in the coherence's amplitude between the two functions where using EEGLAB the amplitude is less that 0.1 where with Mcohere as you can see is close to 1.
>>> 
>>>I'm sure i miss undeerstand something because i'm new with this area and hope i can find some help from you .
