ICA is fit to MEG raw data. The sources matching the ECG and EOG are automatically found and displayed. Subsequently, artifact detection and rejection quality are assessed.

# For the sake of example we annotate first 10 seconds of the recording as
# 'BAD'. This part of data is excluded from the ICA decomposition by default.
# To turn this behavior off, pass ``reject_by_annotation=False`` to
# :meth:`mne.preprocessing.ICA.fit`.

1) Fit ICA model using the FastICA algorithm.
Other available choices are picard
, infomax
or extended-infomax
.
Note
The default method in MNE is FastICA, which along with Infomax is one of the most widely used ICA algorithm. Picard is a new algorithm that is expected to converge faster than FastICA and Infomax, especially when the aim is to recover accurate maps with a low tolerance parameter, see [1] for more information.
We pass a float value between 0 and 1 to select n_components based on the percentage of variance explained by the PCA components.

# To save an ICA solution you can say:
# ica.save('my_ica.fif')
# You can later load the solution by saying:
# from mne.preprocessing import read_ica
# read_ica('my_ica.fif')
# Apply the solution to Raw, Epochs or Evoked like this:
# ica.apply(epochs)
