The chapter starts with a discussion of this phenomenon from a nonlinear approximation point of view, and then proceeds to describe approaches that have been sugges...

Beyond visual P300 based brain-computer interfacing paradigms

The paper reviews and summarizes recent developments in spatial auditory and tactile brain-computer interfacing neurotechology applications. It serves as the latest developments summary in “non-visual” brain-computer interfacing solutions presented in a tutorial delivered by the author at the IICST 2013 workshop. The novel concepts of unimodal auditory or tactile, as well as a bimodal combined ...
