Using DIPFIT to fit one dipole to EEG or ERP scalp maps

EEGLAB provides a command-line implementation of the [DIPFIT plugin](https://github.com/sccn/dipfit) to fit

expressly designed anywhere else. Fitting may only be
performed at selected time points, not throughout a time window. First,
you must specify the DIPFIT settings on the selected dataset. Then, to fit a

Advanced source reconstruction using DIPFIT/Fieldtrip

DIPFIT relies on Fieldtrip, though in fact, DIPFIT was also an ancestor
Background: DIPFIT relies on Fieldtrip, though in fact, DIPFIT was also an ancestor
of Fieldtrip: when Robert Oostenveld, the first Fieldtrip developer,
decided to release source imaging functions he had developed during his
dissertation work, he first packaged them in EEGLAB as DIPFIT. A few
