Correction of blink artifacts using independent component analysis and empirical mode decomposition. [PDF]
Blink-related ocular activity is a major source of artifacts in electroencephalogram (EEG) data. Independent component analysis (ICA) is a well-known technique for the correction of such ocular artifacts, but one of the limitations of ICA is that the ICs
