Dear Mina,

If you have 30 channel data, you want to have minimum of (30^2)*30 = 27000
data points for ICA. The *30 part should be increased to 40, 50,... as you
increase the number of channels. Depending on which paper you read, they
say the number should be 20 or 30. This is just a rule of thumb. Jason says
if you have 100 channels, 1,000,000 data points would be good.

AMICA must have failed. Check out.txt.
