ICA and Committee Machine-Based Algorithm for Cursor Control in a BCI System
نویسندگان
چکیده
In recent years, brain-computer interface (BCI) technology has emerged very rapidly. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) bring us a new communication interface technology which can translate brain activities into control signals of devices like computers, robots. The preprocessing of electroencephalographic (EEG) signal and translation algorithms play an important role in EEG-based BCIs. In this study, we employed an independent component analysis (ICA)-based preprocessing method and a committee machine-based translation algorithm for the offline analysis of a cursor control experiment. The results show that ICA is an efficient preprocessing method and the committee machine is a good choice for translation algorithm.

A new parallel man-machine training approach to brain-computer interface (BCI) succeeded through a unique application of machine learning methods. The BCI system could train users to control an animated cursor on the computer screen by voluntary electroencephalogram (EEG) modulation. Our BCI system requires only two to four electrodes, and has a relatively short training time for both the user ...

The brain – computer interface (BCI) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. Most of these systems are based on brain activities. Brain Computer-Interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. The success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...

متن کاملReducing Power Spectral Density of Eye Blink Artifact through Improved Genetic Algorithm
It is a known fact that brain’s neurological activity is a source of control in any brain-computer interface (BCI) system and artifacts are undesirable signals. We present a technique to reduce electrooculogram (EOG) artifacts that corrupt electroencephalogram (EEG) signals in BCI applications. The developed genetic algorithm based independent component analysis (GALME-ICA) uses mutual informat...
