function [freq] = ft_freqanalysis(cfg, data)

% FT_FREQANALYSIS performs frequency and time-frequency analysis
% on time series data over multiple trials
%
% Use as
%   [freq] = ft_freqanalysis(cfg, data)
%
% The input data should be organised in a structure as obtained from
% the FT_PREPROCESSING or the FT_MVARANALYSIS function. The configuration
% depends on the type of computation that you want to perform.
%
% The configuration should contain:
%   cfg.method      = different methods of calculating the spectra
%                     'mtmfft', analyses an entire spectrum for the entire data
%                       length, implements multitaper frequency transformation.
%                     'mtmconvol', implements multitaper time-frequency
%                       transformation based on multiplication in the
%                       frequency domain.
%                     'wavelet', implements wavelet time frequency
%                       transformation (using Morlet wavelets) based on
%                       multiplication in the frequency domain.
%                     'tfr', implements wavelet time frequency
%                       transformation (using Morlet wavelets) based on
%                       convolution in the time domain.
%                     'mvar', does a fourier transform on the coefficients
%                       of an estimated multivariate autoregressive model,
%                       obtained with FT_MVARANALYSIS. In this case, the
%                       output will contain a spectral transfer matrix,
%                       the cross-spectral density matrix, and the
%                       covariance matrix of the innovatio noise.
%                     'superlet', combines Morlet-wavelet based
%                       decompositions, see below.
%                     'irasa', implements Irregular-Resampling Auto-Spectral 
%                       Analysis (IRASA), to separate the fractal components 
%                       from the periodicities in the signal.
%   cfg.output      = 'pow'       return the power-spectra
%                     'powandcsd' return the power and the cross-spectra
%                     'fourier'   return the complex Fourier-spectra
%                     'fractal'   (when cfg.method = 'irasa'), return the
%                       fractal component of the spectrum (1/f)
%                     'original'  (when cfg.method = 'irasa'), return the
%                       full power spectrum
%                     'fooof'     returns a smooth power-spectrum,
%                       based on a parametrization of a mixture of aperiodic and periodic
%                       components (only works with cfg.method = 'mtmfft')
%                     'fooof_aperiodic' returns a power-spectrum with the
%                       fooof based estimate of the aperiodic part of the signal.
%                     'fooof_peaks' returns a power-spectrum with the fooof
%                       based estimate of the aperiodic signal removed,
%                       it's expressed as
%                       10^(log10(fooof)-log10(fooof_aperiodic))
%   cfg.channel     = Nx1 cell-array with selection of channels (default = 'all'),
%                       see FT_CHANNELSELECTION for details
%   cfg.channelcmb  = Mx2 cell-array with selection of channel pairs (default = {'all' 'all'}),
%                       see FT_CHANNELCOMBINATION for details
%   cfg.trials      = 'all' or a selection given as a 1xN vector (default = 'all')
%   cfg.keeptrials  = 'yes' or 'no', return individual trials or average (default = 'no')
%   cfg.keeptapers  = 'yes' or 'no', return individual tapers or average (default = 'no')
%   cfg.pad         = number, 'nextpow2', or 'maxperlen' (default), length
%                      in seconds to which the data can be padded out. The
%                      padding will determine your spectral resolution. If you
%                      want to compare spectra from data pieces of different
%                      lengths, you should use the same cfg.pad for both, in
%                      order to spectrally interpolate them to the same
%                      spectral resolution.  The new option 'nextpow2' rounds
%                      the maximum trial length up to the next power of 2.  By
%                      using that amount of padding, the FFT can be computed
%                      more efficiently in case 'maxperlen' has a large prime
%                      factor sum.
%   cfg.padtype     = string, type of padding (default 'zero', see
%                      ft_preproc_padding)
%   cfg.polyremoval = number (default = 0), specifying the order of the
%                      polynome which is fitted and subtracted from the time
%                      domain data prior to the spectral analysis. For
%                      example, a value of 1 corresponds to a linear trend.
%                      The default is a mean subtraction, thus a value of 0.
%                      If no removal is requested, specify -1.

% METHOD SPECIFIC OPTIONS AND DESCRIPTIONS
%
% MTMFFT performs frequency analysis on any time series trial data using a
% conventional single taper (e.g. Hanning) or using the multiple tapers based on
% discrete prolate spheroidal sequences (DPSS), also known as the Slepian
% sequence.
%   cfg.taper      = 'dpss', 'hanning' or many others, see WINDOW (default = 'dpss')
%                     For cfg.output='powandcsd', you should specify the channel combinations
%                     between which to compute the cross-spectra as cfg.channelcmb. Otherwise
%                     you should specify only the channels in cfg.channel.
%   cfg.foilim     = [begin end], frequency band of interest
%       OR
%   cfg.foi        = vector 1 x numfoi, frequencies of interest
%   cfg.tapsmofrq  = number, the amount of spectral smoothing through
%                    multi-tapering. Note that 4 Hz smoothing means
%                    plus-minus 4 Hz, i.e. a 8 Hz smoothing box.
%
% MTMCONVOL performs time-frequency analysis on any time series trial data using
% the 'multitaper method' (MTM) based on Slepian sequences as tapers.
% Alternatively, you can use conventional tapers (e.g. Hanning).
%   cfg.tapsmofrq  = vector 1 x numfoi, the amount of spectral smoothing
%                     through multi-tapering. Note that 4 Hz smoothing means

%                      For cfg.output='powandcsd', you should specify the channel combinations
%                      between which to compute the cross-spectra as cfg.channelcmb. Otherwise

%                     such as '50%' or 'all' (default).  Both string options
%                     use all timepoints available in the data, but 'all'
%                     centers a spectral estimate on each sample, whereas
%                     the percentage specifies the degree of overlap between
%                     the shortest time windows from cfg.t_ftimwin.
%
% WAVELET performs time-frequency analysis on any time series trial data using the
% 'wavelet method' based on Morlet wavelets. Using mulitplication in the frequency
% domain instead of convolution in the time domain.

%   cfg.gwidth     = determines the length of the used wavelets in standard
%                    deviations of the implicit Gaussian kernel and should
%                    be chosen >= 3; (default = 3)

% defined as: st = 1/(2*pi*sf)
%
% SUPERLET performs time-frequency analysis on any time series trial data using the

%   cfg.combine    = 'additive', 'multiplicative' (default = 'additive')
%                             determines if cycle numbers of wavelets comprising a superlet
%                             are chosen additively or multiplicatively
%   cfg.order      = vector 1 x numfoi, superlet order, i.e. number of combined
%                             wavelets, for individual frequencies of interest.
%
% The standard deviation in the frequency domain (sf) at frequency f0 is
% defined as: sf = f0/width
% The standard deviation in the temporal domain (st) at frequency f0 is

%                          requires a user specification of the filter order

% 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.
%
% See also FT_FREQSTATISTICS, FT_FREQDESCRIPTIVES, FT_CONNECTIVITYANALYSIS

% Guidelines for use in an analysis pipeline:
% after FT_FREQANALYSIS you will have frequency or time-frequency
% representations (TFRs) of the data, represented as power-spectra,
% power and cross-spectra, or complex fourier-spectra, either for individual
% trials or an average over trials.
% This usually serves as input for one of the following functions:
%    * FT_FREQDESCRIPTIVES  to compute descriptive univariate statistics
%    * FT_FREQSTATISTICS    to perform parametric or non-parametric statistical tests
%    * FT_FREQBASELINE      to perform baseline normalization of the spectra
%    * FT_FREQGRANDAVERAGE  to compute the average spectra over multiple subjects or datasets
%    * FT_CONNECTIVITYANALYSIS to compute various measures of connectivity
% Furthermore, the data can be visualised using the various plotting
% functions, including:
%    * FT_SINGLEPLOTTFR     to plot the TFR of a single channel or the average over multiple channels
%    * FT_TOPOPLOTTFR       to plot the topographic distribution over the head
%    * FT_MULTIPLOTTFR      to plot TFRs in a topographical layout

% Undocumented local options:
% cfg.method = 'hilbert'. Keeping this as undocumented as it does not make
%              sense to use in ft_freqanalysis unless the user is doing his
%              own filter-padding to remove edge-artifacts
% cfg.correctt_ftimwin (set to yes to try to determine new t_ftimwins based
%                       on correct cfg.foi)
