FT_CONNECTIVITY_CSD2TRANSFER
Note that this reference documentation is identical to the help that is displayed in MATLAB when you type “help ft_connectivity_csd2transfer”.
FT_CONNECTIVITY_CSD2TRANSFER computes the transfer-function from frequency domain data using the Wilson-Burg algorithm. The transfer function can be used for the computation of directional measures of connectivity, such as Granger causality, partial directed coherence, or directed transfer functions. Use as [output] = ft_connectivity_csd2transfer(freq, ...) The input variable freq should be a FieldTrip data structure containing frequency domain data containing the cross-spectral density computed between all pairs of channels, thus containing a 'dimord' of 'chan_chan_freq(_time)'. Additional optional input arguments come as key-value pairs: numiteration = scalar value (default: 100) the number of iterations channelcmb = Nx2 cell-array listing the channel pairs for the spectral factorization. If not defined or empty (default), a full multivariate factorization is performed, otherwise a multiple pairwise factorization is done. tol = scalar value (default: 1e-18) tolerance limit truncating the iterations sfmethod = 'multivariate', or 'bivariate' stabilityfix = false, or true. zigzag-reduction by means of tapering of the intermediate time domain representation when computing the plusoperator The code for the Wilson-Burg algorithm has been very generously provided by Dr. Mukesh Dhamala, and Prof. Mingzhou Ding and his group, and has been adjusted for efficiency.
