EP Toolkit version 2.60 has been released: https://sourceforge.net/projects/erppcatoolkit/ <https://sourceforge.net/projects/erppcatoolkit/> I’ve bumped up the release number from the last one (2.54) to reflect the extensive changes that have been made. Aside from numerous bug fixes, there have been substantial improvements made to the robust statistics (discussed in Dien, 2017), Scan Continuous Data, and Preprocessing functions. The changes to the latter (that is now termed the Multiple Algorithm Artifact Correction or MAAC procedure) are the subject of a manuscript that will be submitted soon. Release Notes: 1) Fixed New button in Edit function inactive. 2) 2D maps in Scan function now leave out bad channels. 3) For preprocessing function, when combining chunks from continuous data, keep events that were added during the preprocessing process to chunks other than the first one. 4) For preprocessing function, added automatic detection and correction of saccade potentials. 5) Fixed crash in template function when clicking for 3D head and there are bad channels present. 6) Fixed crash when using average function and the active set is empty. 7) During preprocessing, detects channels that went flat partway through a session (more than 10%) and labels them as global bad channels. 8) Append subjects in the Edit function can now select multiple files for appending. 9) Fixed crash when changing the Trial Spec Model ofthe Latency-Lock procedure of the Average function. 10) Fixed error when averaging and a cell has no good trials. 11) Reworked the latency-lock and the jitter-correct averaging algorithm to operate in a more straightforward manner. 12) Improved saccade correction by treating as eye position artifact rather than saccade related. 13) Fixed channels with large offsets being erroneously tagged as being bad channels during preprocessing. 14) During bad channel detection in preprocessing, check for difference from inverse of all other channels too since channels in sparser arrays can end up being the only opposite polarity waveform. 15) During bad channel detection in preprocessing, baseline correct with first sample for each epoch when applying maxneighbor criterion so simple offset does not trigger it. 16) In preprocessing function, fixed blink detection algorithm was adding lower VEOG channels rather than subtracting them (making it a little less sensitive than it should have been). 17) Blink correction function now adds blink_start and blink_end events. 18) In Scan function, added temporally arranged event list for navigating to individual events. 19) In Scan function, event lists for setting boundaries of Redisplay are now alphabetic order. 20) In Scan function, global bad channels marked with faded line rather than red zone. 21) Fixed error when generating a grand average with the Average function and there are trial specs. 22) Added saccade potential to set of artifact templates. 23) In template function, can click and drag time point marker in waveform windows. 24) Fixed crash in template function after performing a Clear Template for data with non-EEG channels. 25) For preprocessing function, added template summary figure to saved files. 26) In preprocessing routine, implemented improved saccade correction routines, dropping blink points from saccade potential and saccade corrections and treating saccades as continuous eye position artifact rather than as an episodic motion-related artifact. 27) Changed runica call in PCA and blink correction functions so that they are always initialized with same seed so that ICA results are fully replicable. 28) In Scan function, fixed bad channels being displayed as still bad. 29) Added support for boundary events to blink and saccade correction routines in Preprocessing function. 30) Scaling of non-EEG channels in Scan continuous data function adjusted so variations are visible. 31) NaN values no longer set to zero and bad data flags set. 32) Fixed crash when performing time-frequency transform with dpss multi-taper on continuous data or segments longer than .5 seconds and default smoothing of one second. 33) Fixed time-frequency transform being applied only to first one second of continuous data. 34) Fixed FFT data on amplitude scaling not converted to real numbers in Show Waves and Show Topos functions. 35) Time-frequency transform no longer drops non-EEG/MEG channels. 36) Can view continuous TFT data in the Scan function. 37) Event times now updated to new sample times when performing TFT with Transform Data funcion. 38) Fixed crash when applying filtering to averaged data. 39) Added support for template Woody and for continuous data to Sample Test function. 40) Upgraded controls in View Scan Continuous Data for navigating and examining events. 41) Upgraded eye-position figures in View Scan Continuous Data. 42) Added support for writing out subject spec text files. 43) No longer assumes different data files have the same subject specs when combining them (causing error when not the case). 44) Fixed crash in segment function after changing line after -follows- to 'none'. 45) Fixed segmentation ignoring the 6th criterion. 46) Fixed segmentation section crit "<" and ">" relations being interpreted as the reverse direction. 47) Added eye-tracker plot to template function. 48) In template function, fixed waveform plots not updating when changing segment via popupmenu. 49) Fixed crash when saving edits in View>Scan for continuous data. 50) Added eyeTracker option to blink and saccade correction routines. 51) Improved movement correction routine by excluding EOG channels from the detection algorithm. 52) Reversed + and - buttons to comply with norms for such buttons. 53) Accommodated the datasets in View-Scan function having differing channels. 54) Temporarily mean-center data prior to filtering to minimize filter edge artifact (undone afterwards). 55) Fixed error when generating a grand average with the average function. 56) Fixed crash when switching to jitter-correct in Average Pane and there are no single-trial datasets in the working set. 57) Wrong channels being marked when clicking on channels using Edit mode for cells beyond the first in single-trial data in the Scan function. 58) Fixed error when batch segmenting multiple subject files and there are more than one row of criteria for the same cell name. 59) Added support for New Segment events in brainvision files. 60) Time points with extreme values (as specified by the saturation preference) now excluded from bad channel detection, saccade correction, and blink correction procedures in the Preprocessing function. Saturation default value changed to 1000. 61) When quitting, Clear Option now leaves the EPwork directory and the preference file intact, so it is no longer necessary to redo the preference settings. 62) Enabled saccade correction in the Preprocessing function even when one or both HEOG channels are bad. 63) Added toggle to edit mode for Scan function of View of continuous data. 64) Improved blink autotemplate procedure. 65) Improved bad channel detection in Preprocessing function. 66) Adjusted "too many bad chans" criterion in Preprocessing function so not based on rounded off number (10% of 33 channels makes the criterion be need more than 3.3 bad channels rather than 3) and also based on total EEG channels rather than all channels. 67) In the Eye Artifact Template Creation window, various fixes to the behavior of the dataset and trial number controls. 68) Made template undo specific to last change. 69) Improved determination of horizontal saccade direction in the Template function so a exemplar is not erroneously reversed when added to the cumulative template. 70) Fixed crash when setting the Mark fields in the View function.
