Hey guys,  
I want to create the diagnostics figures of the eog components, mainly follow the tutorial " Repairing artifacts with ICA". Some snips of the code are shown below:

```python
reject = get_rejection_threshold(epochs_fake, ch_types=['mag', 'grad', 'eog'])
ica = ICA(n_components=30, random_state=98, method='picard')
ica.fit(raw_notch_filt_hp, reject=reject)
eog_indices, eog_scores = ica.find_bads_eog(raw_notch_filt, ch_name='BIO001')
ica.exclude = eog_indices
ica.plot_properties(raw_notch_filt, picks=eog_indices)

```

After this rejecting part, I encountered the error messages 😔

I’m really confused about what went wrong, any suggestions?

I assume the rejection thresholds you’re using are too low, leading to the rejection of all of your data. Try manually setting the thresholds to higher values.

Hi Richard,

Thanks a lot for your suggestion! 😃 When I set the reject criteria to “reject\_try = dict(grad=8e-10, mag=5e-11)”, it really worked. However, the rejection criteria I started with was obtained by the package “autorejection” which seems a solid rejection toolbox, I’m wondering if it’s appropriate to modify these rejection criteria by my own will. So what I’m gonna do with these rejection criteria in my analysis, or just don’t set the rejection criteria? 😳

I’m not too familiar with `autoreject`, maybe @mainakjas can help here?
