Brain Computer Interface is a paralyzed system. This system is used for direct communication between brain nerves and computer devices. BCI is an imagery movement of the patients who are all unable to communicate with the people. In EEG signals feature extraction plays an important role. Statistical based features are essential feature being used in machine learning applications. Researchers mainly focus on the filters and feature extraction techniques. In this paper data are collected from the BCI Competition III dataset 1a. Statistical features like minimum, maximum, standard deviation, variance, skewnesss, kurtosis, root mean square, average, energy, contrast, correlation and Homogeneity are extracted. Classification is done using machine learning techniques such as Support Vector Machine, Artificial Neural Network and K-Nearest Neighbor. In the proposed system 90.6% accuracy is achieved

A comparison of different machine learning techniques for eye state identification through Electroencephalography (EEG) signals is presented in this paper. (1) Background: We extend our previous work by studying several techniques for the extraction of the features corresponding to the mental states of open and closed eyes and their subsequent classification; (2) Methods: A prototype developed by the authors is used to capture the brain signals. We consider the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) for feature extraction; Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for state classification; and Independent Component Analysis (ICA) for preprocessing the data; (3) Results: The results obtained from some subjects show the good performance of the proposed methods; and (4) Conclusion: The combination of several techniques allows us to obtain a high accuracy of eye identification.

Classification of brain states obtained through functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) poses a serious challenges for neuroimaging community to uncover discriminating patterns of brain state activity that define independent thought processes. This challenge came into existence because of the large number of voxels in a typical fMRI scan, the classifier is presented with a massive feature set coupled with a relatively small training samples. One of the most popular research topics in last few years is the application of machine learning algorithms for mental states classification, decoding brain activation, and finding the variable of interest from fMRI data. In classification scenario, different algorithms have different biases, in the sequel performances differs across datasets, and for a particular dataset the accuracy varies from classifier to classifier. To overcome the limitations of individual techniques, hybridization or fusion of these machine learning techniques emerged in recent years which have shown promising result and open up new direction of research. This paper reviews the machine learning techniques ranging from individual classifiers, ensemble, and hybrid techniques used in cognitive classification with a well balance treatment of their applications, performance, and limitations. It also discusses many open research challenges for further research.


P300 speller in Brain Computer Interface (BCI) allows locked-in or completely paralyzed patients to communicate with humans. To achieve the performance of characterization and increase accuracy, machine learning techniques are used. The study is about an event related potential (ERP) P300 signal detection and classification using various machine learning algorithms. Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are used to classify P300 and Non-P300 signal from Electroencephalography (EEG) signal. The performance of the system is evaluated based on f1-score using BCI competition III dataset II. In our system, we used LDA and SVM classification algorithms. Both the classifiers gave 91.0% classification accuracy.

Brain-Computer Interface has emerged from dazzling experiments of cognitive scientists and researchers who dig deep into the conscious of the human brain where neuroscience, signal processing, machine learning, physical sciences are blended together and neuroprosthesis, neuro spellers, bionic eyes, prosthetic arms, prosthetic legs are created which made the disabled to walk, a mute to express and talk, a blind to see the beautiful world, a deaf to hear, etc. My main aim is to analyze the frequency domain signal of the brain signals of 5 subjects at their respective mental states using an EEG and show how to control a DJI Tello drone using Insight EEG then present the results and interpretation of band power graph, FFT graph and time-domain signals graph of mental commands during the live control of the drone.

In this paper, we investigate analysis and prediction of the time-dependent data. We focus our attention on four different stocks are selected from Yahoo Finance historical database. To build up models and predict the future stock price, we consider three different machine learning techniques including Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Support Vector Regression (SVR). By treating close price, open price, daily low, daily high, adjusted close price, and volume of trades as predictors in machine learning methods, it can be shown that the prediction accuracy is improved.
