چکیده

Electroencephalograms (EEGs) contain responses to visual stimulus, however, signal noise often prevents these from being easily obtained. To classify EEG waveforms, a signal processing procedure using the relationship between EEG and ERP, which is the summation of EEG waveforms, was developed. The processing technique involves the prediction of signals using Support Vector Regression. The procedure was developed and applied to a Kanji recognition task used to classify viewing characters, symbols or Kanji. The accuracy of classification between using EEG waveforms with ERP references and without ERP references was compared. The accuracy with references was significantly more than by chance and was higher than EEG waveforms without references.

Single-trial Classification of Viewed Characters using Single-channel EEG Waveforms

Electroencephalograms (EEGs) and Eventrelated potentials (ERP) have long been used to observe the human visual perception process, such as the human response to letters, Kanji characters and symbols. This paper examines the possibility of classifying characters when viewed by subjects in single trials using single-channel EEG waveforms of the frontal area (Fz) and the occipital area (Oz) of the...

Title Single-trial laser-evoked potentials feature extraction for prediction of pain perception

Pain is a highly subjective experience, and the availability of an objective assessment of pain perception would be of great importance for both basic and clinical applications. The objective of the present study is to develop a novel approach to extract pain-related features from single-trial laser-evoked potentials (LEPs) for classification of pain perception. The single-trial LEP feature ext...

P81: Detection of Epileptic Seizures Using EEG Signal Processing

Epilepsy is the most common brain diseases that cause many problems in the daily life of the patient. In most attempts to automatic detection, the attack used an EEG. In this paper, The complete data set consists of five sets recorded from normal and epileptic patients. Each set containing 100 single-channel EEG segments. Here we used first and last sets (A and E). Set A consisted of segments r...

Applying Genetic Algorithm to EEG Signals for Feature Reduction in Mental Task Classification

Brain-Computer interface systems are a new mode of communication which provides a new path between brain and its surrounding by processing EEG signals measured in different mental states.  Therefore, choosing suitable features is demanded for a good BCI communication. In this regard, one of the points to be considered is feature vector dimensionality. We present a method of feature reduction us...
