Electroencephalographic(EEG)-based communication: EEG control versus system performance in humans.
نویسندگان
چکیده
People can learn to control electroencephalographic (EEG) sensorimotor rhythm amplitude so as to move a cursor to select among choices on a computer screen. We explored the dependence of system performance on EEG control. Users moved the cursor to reach a target at one of four possible locations. EEG control was measured as the correlation (r(2)) between rhythm amplitude and target location. Performance was measured as accuracy (% of targets hit) and as information transfer rate (bits/trial). The relationship between EEG control and accuracy can be approximated by a linear function that is constant for all users. The results facilitate offline predictions of the effects on performance of using different EEG features or combinations of features to control cursor movement.

Chemical ablation of the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus and its effect on electroencephalographic tracings and pain threshold in the tail flick test
The present study was carried out to explore the possible involvement of the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus in the inhibitory descending pain control system associated with the tail flick test and EEG recordings. Adult male (NMRI) albino rats weighing 200 ± 20 g were used. Rats were divided into three groups: experimental, sham and control. The arcuate nucleus was destroyed unilaterally ...

متن کاملEEG Artifact Removal System for Depression Using a Hybrid Denoising Approach
Introduction: Clinicians use several computer-aided diagnostic systems for depression to authorize their diagnosis. An electroencephalogram (EEG) may be used as an objective tool for early diagnosis of depression and controlling it from reaching a severe and permanent state. However, artifact contamination reduces the accuracy in EEG signal processing systems. Methods: This work proposes a no...
متن کاملComputer-Aided Tinnitus Detection based on Brain Network Analysis of EEG Functional Connectivity
Background: Tinnitus known as a central nervous system disorder is correlated with specific oscillatory activities within auditory and non-auditory brain areas. Several studies in the past few years have revealed that in the most tinnitus cases, the response pattern of neurons in auditory system is changed due to auditory deafferentation, which leads to variation and disruption of the brain net...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Hidden Markov Model for Detection of P300 in EEG Signals
Introduction: Evoked potentials arisen by stimulating the brain can be utilized as a communication tool between humans and machines. Most brain-computer interface (BCI) systems use the P300 component, which is an evoked potential. In this paper, we evaluate the use of the hidden Markov model (HMM) for detection of P300. Materials and Methods: The wavelet transforms, wavelet-enhanced indepen...
