[Eeglablist] Some basic questions about ICA

[Chen Chen]

Hi.

I also have some questions about ICA, I wanna someone can help.

I generated four orignal signals and mixed them with a random matrix and
add some noise, then I used ICA to remove artifacts/noise and restore
orignial signals, then I found, after using ICA, the amplitude of orignial
signals reduced and the order of the orignial signals are changed.

How can I to sovle those two problems?

Thank you for your kindly responses.

CHEN
