After some digging following: https://github.com/sccn/eeglab/issues/462
This line checks if the dataset is referenced to a common average. But, the sample EEGLAB dataset field .ref is set to common, which is probably a CAR? And yet this is not captured by ~strcmp(EEG.ref, 'averef').
Same for a dataset outputted after a re-referencing with pop_reref (including the output of ([~, EEG] = evalc('pop_reref(EEG, [], ''exclude'', setdiff(1:EEG.nbchan, EEG.icachansind));');), the field .ref is set to 'average', which is again not captured by ~strcmp(EEG.ref, 'averef').
Is this a mistake and 3 different ways to denote a CAR ref?
