function [data] = ft_denoise_synthetic(cfg, data)

% FT_DENOISE_SYNTHETIC computes CTF higher-order synthetic gradients for
% preprocessed data and for the corresponding gradiometer definition.
%
% Use as
%   [data] = ft_denoise_synthetic(cfg, data);
%
% where data should come from FT_PREPROCESSING and the configuration should contain
%   cfg.gradient = 'none', 'G1BR', 'G2BR' or 'G3BR' specifies the gradiometer
%                  type to which the data should be changed
%   cfg.trials   = 'all' or a selection given as a 1xN vector (default = 'all')
%
% 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.
