TL;DR: EELAB as mentioned in this paper is a toolbox and graphic user interface for processing collections of single-trial and/or averaged EEG data of any number of channels, including EEG data, channel and event information importing, data visualization (scrolling, scalp map and dipole model plotting, plus multi-trial ERP-image plots), preprocessing (including artifact rejection, filtering, epoch selection, and averaging), Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and time/frequency decomposition including channel and component cross-coherence supported by bootstrap statistical methods based on data resampling.

TL;DR: The results on EEG data collected from normal and autistic subjects show that ICA can effectively detect, separate, and remove contamination from a wide variety of artifactual sources in EEG records with results comparing favorably with those obtained using regression and PCA methods.

TL;DR: This work decomposed eight fMRI data sets from 4 normal subjects performing Stroop color‐naming, the Brown and Peterson word/number task, and control tasks into spatially independent components, and found the ICA algorithm was superior to principal component analysis (PCA) in determining the spatial and temporal extent of task‐related activation.

TL;DR: First results of applying the ICA algorithm to EEG and event-related potential (ERP) data collected during a sustained auditory detection task show that ICA training is insensitive to different random seeds and ICA may be used to segregate obvious artifactual EEG components from other sources.

TL;DR: It is shown that nontarget event-related potentials were mainly generated by partial stimulus-induced phase resetting of multiple electroencephalographic processes in a human visual selective attention task.
