Note that this reference documentation is identical to the help that is displayed in MATLAB when you type “help ft_timelockgrandaverage”.

  FT_TIMELOCKGRANDAVERAGE computes ERF/ERP average and variance
  over multiple subjects or over blocks within one subject
 
  Use as
    [grandavg] = ft_timelockgrandaverage(cfg, avg1, avg2, avg3, ...)
 
  where
    avg1..N are the ERF/ERP averages as obtained from FT_TIMELOCKANALYSIS
 
  and cfg is a configuration structure with
   cfg.channel        = Nx1 cell-array with selection of channels (default = 'all'),
                        see FT_CHANNELSELECTION for details
   cfg.latency        = [begin end] in seconds or 'all' (default = 'all')
   cfg.keepindividual = 'yes' or 'no' (default = 'no')
   cfg.normalizevar   = 'N' or 'N-1' (default = 'N-1')
   cfg.method         = 'across' (default) or 'within', see below.
   cfg.parameter      = string or cell-array indicating which
                         parameter to average. default is set to
                         'avg', if it is present in the data.
 
  If cfg.method = 'across', a plain average is performed, i.e. the
  requested parameter in each input argument is weighted equally in the
  average. This is useful when averaging across subjects. The
  variance-field will contain the variance across the parameter of
  interest, and the dof-field will contain the number of input arguments.
 
  If cfg.method = 'within', a weighted average is performed, i.e. the
  requested parameter in each input argument is weighted according to the
  dof-field. This is useful when averaging across blocks within subjects.
  The variance-field will contain the variance across all input
  observations, and the dof-field will contain the number of observations.
 
  To facilitate data-handling and distributed computing you can use
    cfg.inputfile   =  ...
    cfg.outputfile  =  ...
  If you specify one of these (or both) the input data will be read from a *.mat
  file on disk and/or the output data will be written to a *.mat file. These mat
  files should contain only a single variable, corresponding with the
  input/output structure. For this particular function, the input should be
  structured as a cell array.
