High-Level Summary

This toolkit contains MATLAB functions and scripts that I've written for importing and analyzing EEG data with FieldTrip. The main goal is to provide wrapper functions for quickly and easily running analyses and making plots in the way that I've determined has been fruitful for using FieldTrip.

I've set up the functions to import and process Net Station data; they don't currently deal with other formats, but it should relatively easy to modify mat-mvm to import anything that FieldTrip can import. Also included are scripts for using PyEPL-based experimental data in the context of Net Station and FieldTrip, dealing with Net Station files, interfacing with the ERP PCA Toolkit, running statistics, running ICA blink correction, ANOVAs, and more. There are other scripts as well, many of which are specific to my experiments

The toolkit has been tuned for my workflow, and so I can't guarantee how well they will work for others, but I wanted to put them out there so I can keep track of them in a version control system and so that others can use them. I would enjoy hearing feedback that anyone might have.

Getting Started and Documentation

See the StartingOut page in the Wiki tab to get started.

Some functions may not be documented particularly well, and that's because I haven't gotten around to doing that yet. Hopefully the more important functions are documented in the function header, accessible with the 'help' command in MATLAB.

The Functions page has a brief overview of some of the most useful functions to use after you get your data in FieldTrip format.

If you have any questions, please email me. You can find my email address on the project homepage under the members section.

Download

To download, see the Source tab. The default directory name is 'mat-mvm-read-only', but if you'd rather download it as 'mat-mvm', delete '-read-only' before you run the command. Make sure to check for updates every now and then by typing 'svn update' in the Terminal. Your local changes might get overwritten, so be sure to save your changes into new files.

Licensing

Some functions, like a few in the stat/rmaov directory, have been downloaded from the MATLAB File Exchange and modified, and they are included because I use them. The original download URL and copyright information is contained in those files, which are covered under the Simplified BSD License. The Simplified BSD License is GPL-compatible, and thus these files can be included here.
