[Eeglablist] When to perform re-reference?

[Jerry Zhu]

Hi Makoto,
Thank you again for your reply.

Did you mean "averaging AFTER removing bad epoches" in your sentence "you
should apply average referencing AFTER removing bad channels."?

So here are my processing:
1) re-reference  (from Cz to average in my case)
2) remove bad epoches
3) interpolate bad channels
4) ICA

Sounds like you would recommend the order: 2143?

Looking forward to your and others inputs!
Thanks all!
Jerry

We have two halves in the brain: left and right. Nothing is right in the
left. Nothing is left in the right.
