Index exceeds the number of array elements (1000).

sub = 1;

load subject1.mat

% veldat(hand): samples, joints, reps, tasks,sub

% oridat(eeg): samples, chs, reps, tasks

% 8 bandwidths

njoint = 10;

ntask = 6;

nrep = 30;

nch = 32;

nban = 8;

veldat = EEGdat;

oridat = gdat;

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% EEG data %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

%%%%%%% averaged bandpower features within segments %%%%%%%

N = size(oridat,1); % number of samples

n = (1-1/4)*N/(N/4/4)+1;

sg = round(size(oridat,1)/4); % total 2s, pick 0.5s segment

ll = round((size(oridat,1)/4)/4); % 75% overlap

for task = 1:ntask

for rep = 1:nrep

for ch = 1:nch

edat = zscore(oridat(:,ch,rep,task)); % standardization

for i = 1:n

sg1 = (i-1)*ll+1;

sg2 = (i-1)*ll+sg;

segE(i,ch,rep,task) = bandpower(edat(sg1:sg2));

end

end

end

end

Because the index exceeds the array there is also an error in this line:

segE(i,ch,rep,task) = bandpower(edat(sg1:sg2));

Unfortunately you forgot to attach subject1.mat, so we don't know. All we know is that segE doesn't have dimensions as big as any of those indexes, and same for edat. Just do normal debugging to check out what the size of everything is and figure out why you're asking for some element that's beyond the end of the array. Attach subject1.mat if you need more help, after you read this link.

Hi Samantha,

Yes, as mentioned by you in the comments. When ever there is an index accessing the array or matrix, beyond its size. You get indexing error.

For your problem here, without knowing much about what you are looking for, I suggest placing if condition before accessing the edat. Something like if sg1 <= length(edat) && sg2 <= length (edat), only then execute the command segE. This would avoide an indexing error.

Hope this helps. Regards, Sriram
