% pop_importeyetracker() - import and synchronize simultaneously recorded
% eye tracking data and store it as additional data channels in
% the EEG structure. Loads the MATLAB copy of the raw ET data
% generated by pop_parsesmi() or pop_parseeyelink().
% Synchronizes ET and EEG based on common events present in both
% recordings. The eye tracking data will be resampled/linearly
% interpolated to match the sampling frequency of the EEG.
% If available, eye movement events (blink/saccade/fixation
% detected online) can be imported from the ET raw data (for
% Eyelink only).
%
% Usage:
% >> EEG = pop_importeyetracker(EEG, matFileToLoad, startEndEvent, ...
% importColumns, newLabels, importEyeEvents, doRegression, ...
% filterEyetrack, plotFig)
%
% Inputs:
% EEG - EEG dataset (continuous data)
% for which there is a parallel ET recording
% matFileToLoad - <string> file path to eyetracker mat-file
% generated by function parsesmi or parseeyelink
% startEndEvent - <vector with two values> event codes shared in the
% EEG and ET recording for synchronization. A vector
% with two numerical values is expected:
% [startevent, endevent], e.g. [102 202]
% importColumns - <double> array of indices of eyetracker columns to
% import, e.g., [3 5 7]
% newLabels - <cell> of <string> of length(importColumns) which
% containts the channel labels of the newly
% imported ET data columns,
% e.g. {'gaze_x', 'gaze_y', 'pupilsize'}
% importEyeEvents - <boolean> [0|1] set TRUE if you want to import
% eye movement events (e.g. saccades) that were
% detected online by the ET recording software
% (works for Eyelink only). Imported events will be
% stored in the EEG.events structure.
% doRegression - <boolean> [0|1]
% FALSE: interpolate data only based on the latency of
% the start-event and end-event
% TRUE: estimate latency of start-event and end-event
% based on linear regression using all events that are
% shared by the EEG and ET recording. For GUI use, the
% default setting for doRegression is TRUE.
% filterEyetrack - <boolean> [0|1] {default: 0}
% FALSE: resample the eye tracking data to the sampling
% frequency of the EEG (using linear interpolation),
% but do not apply any filters to the eye tracking data
% TRUE: filter the eye tracking data at the Nyquist
% frequency to prevent aliasing/image artifacts that
% may result from downsampling or upsampling the ET
% data to the sampling frequency of the EEG. This
% function is NOT YET IMPLEMENTED so the setting has no
% effect at the moment.
%
% plotFig - <boolean> [0|1] set TRUE to plot figure showing the
% quality of synchronisation (recommended)
%
% searchRadius - radius (in samples) around EEG events to search for
% matching (shared) events of the same type in the ET.
% This value is important to identify instances of
% shared events that were transmitted between the
% startEvent and endEvent.
% The algorithm will search within plusminus
% 'searchRadius' samples around each EEG event for an
% ET event of the same type (e.g. '123').
% Unless you have trouble with synchronization, or use
% a very low (e.g. 100 Hz) or very high (e.g. 1000 Hz)
% sampling rate for the EEG, we recommend sticking to
% the default value of 4.
% However, it may be a good idea to increase the
% searchRadius in case of very high sampling rates
% (e.g. 2000 Hz) or in the case of errors that can happen
% if multiple events of the same type (e.g. '123') were
% send in immediate succession (that is, less than
% 2*searchRadius+1 samples apart) during the experiment.
% [DEFAULT: 4 samples]
%
%
% Outputs:
% EEG - EEG dataset (with synchronized eye tracking data)
%
% See also:
% pop_parsesmi, pop_parseeyelink, pop_parsetobii, synchronize
%
% Example: An call of pop_importeyetracker() might look like this:
% >> EEG = pop_importeyetracker(EEG,'C:\\eyedata.mat',[103 203],[3 7],...
% {'Gaze_x' 'Pupil_Dia_(mm)'},0,1,0,5,1)
%
% Explanation: load the parsed ET data stored in "eyedata.mat" that was
% generated by pop_parsesmi, pop_parseeyelink, or pop_parsetobii. Use the
% first event of type "103" and the last event of type "203" as the startEvent
% and endEvent for synchronization, respectively. Import the third and
% seventh numerical data column from the ET raw data. These columns contain
% the horizontal gaze position and pupil diameter and are named accordingly.
% Do not import eye movement events from the raw data. Do a linear
% regression on all shared events to optimize the latency estimation for
% the startevent and endevent. Do not filter the eye tracking data.
% Plot a figure that informs about the precision of synchronization. Set
% the searchRadius to identify matching triggers to 5 samples.
