Dear Matthew and Michael, Thank you very much for your suggestions! I will then wait for your release of the multi-run fix, in the meantime I will try to run it on the individual tasks/resting state sessions. Just a follow-up question: would it make sense to you to first run FIX to remove artifacts, then run MELODIC ICA on the cleaned data at the group level to get some group components and then get the individual components with double regression? Or is there some problem you see in running an ICA after an ICA? Thank you very much,

Hopefully soon.

That works on the volume data and then also cleans the CIFTI data at the same time. Matt.

I have then ran MELODIC group ICA on the resulting dtseries.nii files (for each task separately). My question is this: I have only greyordinate data in the outputs, so how can I optimally identify the noise components since I have no data for example from the CSF or white matter? I am also wondering if running the ICA on the greyordinate data is already somehow excluding the noise components that are predominantly in the CSF and white matter. I was thinking one way I could proceed is to use the statistics produced from MELODIC of the comparison between the components and the “background noise” (although I am unsure about how this is defined) and/or enter the GLMs of my tasks in MELODIC and see if I find components that correlate with the design (but then I would not know what to do with resting state). Another possibility would be to use the FIX pipeline, but I am not sure if it’s implemented for tasks and if it can be used at the group level. In any case, I wanted to make sure that the processing is the same for resting state and task data. Also, I would probably need to retrain the classifier, since we are conducting our experiment at a different site and on a GE magnet, correct? I would appreciate any pointers on how to best proceed with this matter.
