The xDAWN algorithm is well-known as a method for designing spatial filters to improve signal-to-noise ratio and to reduce the dimension of observed EEG signals. This paper proposes a method for spatially smoothing xDAWN spatial filters to give a robustness against small sample problem. The proposed method gives a subspace constraint to the parameter space of the spatial filters. This subspace is...
Brain computer interface (BCI) is a system for communication between people and computers via brain activity. Steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs), a brain response observed in EEG, are evoked by flickering stimuli. SSVEP is one of the promising paradigms for BCI. Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is widely used for EEG signal processing in SSVEP-based BCIs. However, the classification...
Brain-computer interfacing (BCI) based on steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) is one of the most practical BCIs because of its high recognition accuracies and little training of a user. Mixed frequency and phase coding which can implement a number of commands and achieve a high information transfer rate (ITR) has recently been gaining much attention. In order to implement mixed-coded SSVEP-BCI...
Detection of frequency for steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) is addressed. We propose to use the combination of CCA and training data-based template matching between two level of data adaptive reference signals that can deal with the dominant frequency. On the basis of magnitude of stimulus frequency components, the dominant channels are selected. The recognition accuracy as well as the...
An asynchronous brain-computer interface (BCI) is one of the crucial challenges in biomedical signal processing. In asynchronous BCIs, a state when a user does not intend to input commands needs to be distinguished from a state when he/she does. These states are called non-control (NC) state and intentional control (IC) state respectively. In this paper, a new phase-based method to discriminate between...
Visually stimulated brain-computer interfacing detects which target on a screen a user is gazing at; however, this is also accomplished by tracking gaze points with a camera. These two approaches have been independently investigated and sometimes doubts about BCI with visual stimuli are raised in terms of usability compared to eye tracking interfaces (ETI). This paper answers this question by investigating...
It is important to estimate the driver dozing practically. In the conventional study, the electroencephalogram (EEG) has been a promising indicator to driver dozing. Furthermore, it is known that frequency of the EEG is highly related to the sleep and the wake conditions. Therefore, we extract frequency components of the EEG from the whole cerebral cortex, by using the rhythmic component extraction...
A novel method termed differential joint diagonalization (DJD) is introduced to find good initial values for joint diagonalization of time-varying correlation matrices. A key point of the method is finding a matrix which satisfies several conditions in the form of the matrix Riccati equation simultaneously. An alternate algorithm of differential joint diagonalization and joint diagonalization is proposed...
