Following ICA model application, introduced for example in the context of fMRI (Beckmann and Smith, 2004;Porcaro et al, 2010) and Fetal Magnetoencephalography (Porcaro et al, 2006), we applied an automatic ICA procedure (an appropriately modified version of Barbati et al, 2004) to the Raw Data to identify and classify artifactual non-cerebral activities, i.e.…”
