 Dr. Baloni:


1. Yes, you would interpolate after the second ICA. I personally
interpolate as the last pre-processing step. Also I assume you are
referring to "clean raw data" and not cleanline, as the latter only removes
line noise.

2. Yes, your rank would be 128 -10 = 118. If the channels were deleted from
the dataset entirely ICA should detect this and run fine without additional
options. If not then you should use the 'pca' command. Are you average
referencing your data before ICA? In that case your rank would be 117 (at
least as I understand it - someone on the list please correct me if this is
inaccurate), otherwise it would be the number of channels remaining = 118.

Remember that if you remove any components in the 1st ICA the 2nd should be
run on the original number of components minus the number removed (e.g.
117-25 = 92).


Thank you,
