Effect of Fatigue on Ssvep during Virtual Wheelchair Navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The goal of this study is to investigate the influence of fatigue on Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) during virtual wheelchair navigation. For this purpose, an experimental environment was set based on modifiable parameters (luminosity, number of obstacles and obstacles velocities). A correlation study between SSVEP and fatigue ratings was conducted by the mean of spectral analysis. Finally, the best correlated parameters are presented for a classification using three algorithms which are MLP (Multi Layer Perceptron), LDA (Linear Discriminate Analysis) and SVM (Support Vector Machine). Those findings can help us in order to design suitable gaze/brain based wheelchair navigation.

An open question in research nowadays is the usability of Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) conceived to extend human capabilities of interaction within a virtual environment. Several paradigms are used for BCI but the Steady-State Visual-Evoked Potential (SSVEP) stands out as it provides a higher information transfer rate while requiring less training. It is an electroencephalographic response d...

A promising approach for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) employs the steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) for extracting control information. Main advantages of these SSVEP BCIs are a simple and low-cost setup, little effort to adjust the system parameters to the user and comparatively high information transfer rates (ITR). However, traditional frequency-coded SSVEP BCIs require the us...
