Hi,

 

ICA has been performed on the three sessions separately so I think it’s
better to use a different strategy.

 

Best,

Francesco

Oggetto: Re: [HCP-Users] MEG resting state

 

Hi Adoney,

The released data has been only 7.5 mm maximum movement within scan.

So the sensor positions should be quite close in all three resting state
scans.

ICA was done with all three sessions concatenated together.

So I believe it should be one to concatenate them for your analysis too and
assume sensors are more or less on same location.

If you want to treat each different scan separately then you have to follow
different strategies like:

-Perform beamforming for each session separately and project each session
separately into source space and then concatenate data in source space and
do further analysis there.

-Make a virtual gradiometer array as the mean of the three gradiometer
positions in the three scans and then interpolate the data of each session
to this virtual MEG sensors using Fieltrip’s function ft_megrealign and then
combine all data in this virtual sensor space. Keep in mind that this
projects the data into source space and projects it back to the virtual
sensor space.

 

I hope this helps

Best

Giorgos

Subject: [HCP-Users] MEG resting state

 

Hi, 

 

The MEG resting state data is split in three sessions, is it possible to
append the data before computing the covariance matrix? 

I have some doubts because the sensor position might change between the
recordings and if ICA was done separately, then the rank would change
between sessions and I don't know how would this affect beamforming.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Adonay
