AbstractIn recent years, the usage of portable electroencephalogram (EEG) devices are becoming popular for both clinical and non-clinical applications. In order to provide more comfort to the subject and measure the EEG signals for several hours, these devices usually consists of fewer EEG channels or even with a single EEG channel. However, electrooculogram (EOG) signal, also known as eye-blink artifact, produced by involuntary movement of eyelids, always contaminate the EEG signals. Very few techniques are available to remove these artifacts from single channel EEG and most of these techniques modify the uncontaminated regions of the EEG signal. In this paper, we developed a new framework that combines unsupervised machine learning algorithm (k-means) and singular spectrum analysis (SSA) technique to remove eye blink artifact without modifying actual EEG signal. The novelty of the work lies in the extraction of the eye-blink artifact based on the time-domain features of the EEG signal and the unsupervised machine learning algorithm. The extracted eye-blink artifact is further processed by the SSA method and finally subtracted from the contaminated single channel EEG signal to obtain the corrected EEG signal. Results with synthetic and real EEG signals demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over the existing methods. Moreover, the frequency based measures [the power spectrum ratio ($$\Gamma $$ Γ ) and the mean absolute error (MAE)] also show that the proposed method does not modify the uncontaminated regions of the EEG signal while removing the eye-blink artifact.

Nowadays, biometric modalities have gained popularity in security systems. Nevertheless, the conventional commercial-grade biometric system addresses some issues. The biggest problem is that they can be imposed by artificial biometrics. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a possible solution. It is nearly impossible to replicate because it is dependent on human mental activity. Several studies have already demonstrated a high level of accuracy. However, it requires a large number of sensors and time to collect the signal. This study proposed a biometric system using single-channel EEG recorded during resting eyes open (EO) conditions. A total of 45 EEG signals from 9 subjects were collected. The EEG signal was segmented into 5 second lengths. The alpha band was used in this study. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) with Daubechies type 4 (db4) was employed to extract the alpha band. Power spectral density (PSD) was extracted from each segment as the main feature. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and support vector machine (SVM) were used to classify the EEG signal. The proposed method achieved 86% accuracy using LDA only from the third segment. Therefore, this study showed that it is possible to utilize single-channel EEG during a resting EO state in a biometric system.

This paper proposes an approach for quantifying Depth of Anesthesia (DOA) based on correlation dimension (D2) of electroencephalogram (EEG). The single-channel EEG data was captured in both ICU and operating room while different anesthetic drugs, including propofol and isoflurane, were used. Correlation dimension was computed using various optimized parameters in order to achieve the maximum sensitivity to anesthetic drug effects and to enable real time computation. For better analysis, application of adaptive segmentation on EEG signal for estimating DOA was evaluated and compared to fixed segmentation, too. Prediction probability (PK) was used as a measure of correlation between the predictors and BIS index to evaluate the proposed methods. Appropriate correlation between DOA and correlation dimension is achieved while choosing (D2) parameters adaptively in comparison to fixed parameters due to the nonstationary nature of EEG signal.

Drowsiness or fatigue condition refers to feeling abnormally sleepy at an inappropriate time, especially during day time. It reduces the level of concentration and slowdown the response time, which eventually increases the error rate while doing any day-to-day activity. It can be dangerous for some people who require higher concentration level while doing their work. Study shows that 25–30% of road accidents occur due to drowsy driving. There are number of methods available for the detection of drowsiness out of which most of the methods provide an indirect measurement of drowsiness whereas electroencephalography provides the most reliable and direct measurement of the level of consciousness of the subject. The aim of this paper is to design and develop a portable and low cost brain–computer interface system for detection of drowsiness. In this study, we are using three dry electrodes out of which two active electrodes are placed on the forehead whereas the reference electrode is placed on the earlobe to acquire electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. Previous research shows that, there is a measurable change in the amplitude of theta ([Formula: see text]) wave and alpha ([Formula: see text]) wave between the active state and the drowsy state and based on this fact theta ([Formula: see text]) wave and alpha ([Formula: see text]) wave are separated from the normal EEG signal. The signal processing unit is interfaced with the microcontroller unit which is programmed to analyze the drowsiness based on the change in the amplitude of theta ([Formula: see text]) wave. An alarm will be activated once drowsiness is detected. The experiment was conducted on 20 subjects and EEG data were recorded to develop our drowsiness detection system. Experimental results have proved that our system has achieved real-time drowsiness detection with an accuracy of approximately 85%.

AbstractThis paper describes preliminary work towards an automated algorithm for labelling Neuropixel data that exploits the fact that adjacent recording sites are spatially oversampled. This is achieved by combining classical single channel spike sorting with spatial spike grouping, resulting in an improvement in both accuracy and robustness. This is additionally complemented by an automated method for channel selection that determines which channels contain high quality data. The algorithm has been applied to a freely accessible dataset, produced by Cortex Lab, UCL. This has been evaluated to have a accuracy of over 77% compared to a manually curated ground truth.

Sleep Stage Classification

Purpose: Sleep is one of the necessities of the body, such as eating, drinking, etc., that affects different aspects of human life. Sleep monitoring and sleep stage classification play an important role in the diagnosis of sleeprelated diseases and neurological disorders. Empirically, classification of sleep stages is a time-consuming, tedious, and complex task, which heavily depends on the experience of the experts. As a result, there is a crucial need for an automatic efficient sleep staging system. Materials and Methods: This study develops a 13-layer 1D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) using singlechannel Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal for extracting features automatically and classifying the sleep stages. To overcome the negative effect of an imbalance dataset, we have used the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE). In our study, the single-channel EEG signal is given to a 1D CNN, without any feature extraction/selection processes. This deep network can self-learn the discriminative features from the EEG signal. Results: Applying the proposed method to sleep-EDF dataset resulted in overall accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and Precision of 94.09%, 74.73%, 96.43%, and 71.02%, respectively, for classifying five sleep stages. Using single-channel EEG and providing a network with fewer trainable parameters than most of the available deep learning-based methods are the main advantages of the proposed method. Conclusion: In this study, a 13-layer 1D CNN model was proposed for sleep stage classification. This model has an end-to-end complete architecture and does not require any separate feature extraction/selection and classification stages. Having a low number of network parameters and layers while still having high classification accuracy, is the main advantage of the proposed method over most of the previous deep learning-based approaches.
