John,

Makoto  seems to forget the result of Fiorenzo Artoni that applying PCA
before ICA is suboptimal - better to reduce the number of channels and run
ICA decomposition full-rank. Or, if you are more ambitious / exacting, run
multiple ICA decompositions on different channel subsets (for example,
random sets of 70 channels picked from 128) and then apply clustering to
the resulting independent component (IC) maps - I haven't seen that
approach applied yet ...

to EEG data by Principal Component Analysis reduces the quality of its
subsequent Independent Component decomposition

. *NeuroImage*, *175*, pp.176-187.

Fiorenzo's RELICA plug-in does something related - applying (full-rank) ICA
decomposition to randomly selected subsets of data points, followed by
component clustering. Zeynep Akalin Acar has recently demonstrated that
using RELICA component cluster scalp map means *and* variances  can
increase the accuracy of high-resolution source location estimation.

localization of ICA-derived EEG components using a source scalp projection
